Just don't buy the PIECE OF SHIT phone that you don't need anyways.

Not only will you help to save lives but help with bringing down the paradigm.

I don't have a "smart" phone and get along just fine.

Think about it..

At one point he says that an Iphone passed in front of him every 3 seconds and he would have to mark 4 spots without mistakes and go on to the next...
Then it says by his calculations, he was doing 5 Iphones per minute.... That's 12 seconds per Iphone... not 3.

Something seems like bullshit about this vid... Wasn't there some sort of battle between Samsung and Apple..? I could see this being some sort of industrial setup/sabotage.

That being said, I have no doubt working conditions in China are fucking deplorable.

Cry me a river. I work for a large American utility company and I worked 5 12-hr shifts for 9 years with NO BREAKS and NO LUNCHES.

It IS legal to do this in America.

Why didn't I quit?

Now I work 10 hour days with a 30 min lunch that I pay for

OMG but it's 4G! No phone ever up until this point has had 4G capability on it. Or HD video! OMG YEAY!

Fucking Apple ASSHATS! All the people who wait in line for this piece of shit product should be forced to replace those chinese workers on the assembly line. Goddamn I fucking hate Apple.

BTW those grates on the windows aren't for security. They are to stop workers from JUMPING TO THEIR DEATHS!
