I'm sure each and every one of those downtrodden Occupy Wall Street sadsacks blogged about their adventure on their $300, $150 a month iPhone.

That Apple Executive is just THRILLED that they can treat thousands of "employees" as slave labor at a moment's notice, even at midnight!
This,
And to answer another question. Abuses of power such as this are the reason that Unions need to exist.

Chinese incomes are rising rapidly. Be interesting to see what happens to all the low wage manufacturing jobs and all the capital invested to use that cheap labor when all of a sudden....the labor isnt so cheap anymore.

Apple Slavemaster posted:
Apple executives say that going overseas, at this point, is their only option. One former executive described how the company relied upon a Chinese factory to revamp iPhone manufacturing just weeks before the device was due on shelves. Apple had redesigned the iPhone’s screen at the last minute, forcing an assembly line overhaul. New screens began arriving at the plant near midnight.
A foreman immediately roused 8,000 workers inside the company’s dormitories, according to the executive. Each employee was given a biscuit and a cup of tea, guided to a workstation and within half an hour started a 12-hour shift fitting glass screens into beveled frames. Within 96 hours, the plant was producing over 10,000 iPhones a day.
“The speed and flexibility is breathtaking,†the executive said. “There’s no American plant that can match that.â€
There is a logical explanation for that, you bleeding asshole.

What do you want to bet that Apple ends up paying no Federal Income Tax for the year?

I'm sure those people were treated wonderfully and the corporate dorms are nothing short of lavish. In fact, I would go so far as to say that these people should be lucky they have jobs! If it weren't for the benevolent executives at Apple these people would still be eating tree bark instead of leaves!
If only we could be so lucky!

This just proves we need to abolish all wage laws and taxes on rich people. Then we can all get paid 17 bucks to work 12 hours a day, too! Jobs for everyone!
