This morning Rob Schmitz posted a video to Marketplace.org. The video is the day-to-day life of a worker for Foxconn and how iPads are assemebled and tested. Schmitz took a look down to the factory floor to see how they are tested. You can see that the factory workers are turning the iPads, testing the screen etc...
"The first misconception I had about Foxconn’s Longhua facility in the city of Shenzhen was that I’ve always called it a ‘factory’ — technically, it is. But after you enter the gates and walk around, you quickly realize that it’s also a city — 240,000 people work here. Nearly 50,000 of them live on campus in shared dorm rooms."Continuing on marks thoughts of the campus, he continued highlighting that the factory is surrounded by "fast-food restaurants, cafes, banks, football pitches and a library"
“There are basketball courts, tennis courts, a gym, two enormous swimming pools, and a bright green astroturf soccer stadium smack-dab in the middle of campus,” Schmitz said. “There’s a radio station — Voice of Foxconn — and a television news station. Longhua even has its own fire department, located right on main street.”
