Wow... no agenda on this “article” that doesn’t look horrible in the least. For a vacated property, a little mildew around the floor drain in the bathroom? And those rooms are hardly cramped... May not meet McMansion standards, but hardly is it what they want it to be portrayed as.
No!!! Say it ain’t so...I need a Xanax.
iMold.
I don’t see anything wrong with the overall setup, actually. Of course, these photos show it after it has fallen into disrepair.
Its pretty typical for young, migrant worker dorms in China. If you want to see “spartan” or “poor” - then look at the peasant farm-houses these kids are leaving behind.
These lodgings are provided low-cost or free with some very basic medical attention. There is some money deducted for “social security” (China has the same scam as we do) but otherwise, these workers don’t pay taxes. Its not expected to be a long-term gig. They work as many hours as possible, to save as much as possible to support their parents or children, buy a house back home, or start a business.
Promoting tranny bathrooms while manufacturing iphones with Chinese slave labor. The pirates of Cupertino California!
Like a heavy construction camp. You got a cot and ate like a King in the mess hall..
Meh.
I’ve lived in worse.
Better than I had in basic training...
And Trump says he will force Apple to make the iPhone in the US. Trump really doesn’t get it.
I had the same thought. Go into any closed down college dorm months after it’s closed down, and I bet it wouldn’t look much different.
Reminds me of when I got drafted 52 years ago.
We used to spend a week in the Fall prior to school starting rehabing the Frat House every year.
The article makes a big deal about the bathrooms, not realizing that's a big improvement over "normal" in China. Toilet fixtures are common in the western world, but not in the third world.
Butt Pirates...
Every one a volunteer. Every one improved their status in life by having these jobs. Air conditioning in every room and a hundred hungry folks waiting to fill your slot if you are done with it.
You dont even want to see what my basic training barracks looked like.
LOL, I remember the WWII era barracks at Fort Lewis.
250 pounds a month and they charge 16 for rent. I’ll bet they forgot to show the cafeteria where all meals are provided.
250 is below the average for an electrical trade worked in Shanghai of about 500 per month, but if dorms are provided, that’s not too bad. It works out to 6.4%.
My modest 3 bedroom home costs me about 20% of my gross monthly pay and that doesn’t include utilities, food etc.
Those certainly are not slave quarters.
