A place to discuss positive changes that can make work more equitable, and to vent about current practices. We are NOT against work; we just want the fruits of our labor to be recognized better.

And the fun thing of 'fired at will' is that it is enshrined in so-called 'Right to Work' laws. The evil would be hilarious is it wasn't so horrible.

No, you're wrong here. 'Right to Work' laws are about preventing unions from controlling an entire workplace, forcing new employees to join the union. 'At-Will Employment' laws are entirely seperate from that.

Yea there tends to be a disconnect at the “right to be fired” part.
