“So you claim of “ no one anywhere, for or against Apple. . .” Is exactly what, based on what?”

Holy crap Swordmaker. This article makes no mention of suicide for overtime. You can imply that they were mad about not receiving enough money for overtime, but you’d have to insert that yourself.

Leonard, that’s just ONE example of using threats of suicide for labor advantage. I did NOT scan the.entire raft of articles, but it came out later that one of the issues the workers were upset and protesting about was the cut in available overtime opportunities in response to the company meeting the new guidelines imposed by the Fair Labor Association. . . go find it yourself!!!! Sheesh! There are literally hundreds of stories on these labor suicide threat stories, and some went into detailed in depth analysis of the workers concerns. I read them. . . and if you will NOTICE this was a Microsoft Xbox assembly plant just as I told you! Not an Apple assembly plant! Quit picking at nits. I told you, I am not going to hand you everything I know, or the sources on a silver platter. . . you would STILL find some nit to pick even if I presented it with everything wrapped up with a red satin bow! Find it for yourself, then you’ll know its a fact! I’m not going to spend the time digging it out for you. I did this one to hoist you on your petard because I’m tired of your arrogant attitude. . . and you needed hoisting. I see I wasted my time.
