Frustrated at work? Job suck?
Frustrated at work?

Let it all out at FixOurJobs.org

On "Undercover Boss," a new reality TV show premiering after the Super Bowl, corporate CEOs go "undercover" to get a taste of what working is like for the rest of us.

Big surprise: they can't believe their eyes.

One woman is docked two minutes of pay for every minute she's late clocking in. Another is forced to use a coffee can as a toilet.

OK, you probably don't have to pee in a can. But I'm guessing you've complained about your job at least once this week, right? And I bet you don't have a reality show to make your boss pay attention! Well, now you can do something about it.

Watch our video and tell us why YOUR job sucks at our new website: www.FixOurJobs.org

More than ever, work in America just isn't working.

We're working longer than ever, and not making more money for it. Even those of us lucky enough to have jobs are facing soaring healthcare costs, spiked interest rates, and bigger bills. And forget about job security.

Now America has a place to vent – and to tell Congress exactly how we feel: www.FixOurJobs.org


We've put together a quick video about the reality show "Undercover Boss" – and why we can't sit around waiting for America's CEOs to go undercover and have a change of heart, one by one, like they do on the show.

We need to pass meaningful labor law reform now so everyone has a voice in the workplace and a chance to better their situation.

Head to FixOurJobs.org to watch our video and tell the world and Congress what's wrong with your job.

It only takes a few minutes. And hey, be honest: didn't you already spend that long complaining about your job today?

Just put it in writing, and you're one step closer to making it better.

Thank you
