I had to click the link to figure out why. It was a fire.
A fire at a shoe factory in the south-eastern Chinese city of Jinjiang has killed at least 28 people, according to the state news agency.
Ah… I guessed something got laced with something.
What a soleless joke
Seriously, we oughta give them the boot.
Seriously shoehorning that in.
They use a lot of glue in those places. Id say its a shoe in.
No idea why but I so knew that intuitively that I thought I read the word fire after seeing your comment and go back to see I hadn’t.

Most non-Americans would assume that. As opposed to a disgruntled employee with an AK.
I figured their boss was making an example out of them for not meeting quota, personally
To understand the numbers, you need to see the photos of Ted Burtynsky, probably then best photographer alive right now.
My gosh. They don’t even get to sit. And the neck pain I would have after 10–12 hours of this shit.
That’s just regular assembly line work. They don’t let you sit here either. I’m sure conditions are better here but it’s a shit job that treats you like dirt no matter where you do it.
Where exactly is “here” for you?
I’m sure this is not the case in every country.
Probably USA.
Never seen a chair in an assembly line section except for an occasional desk.
Actually tbh I think the chair aspect is the least concerning. Chair vs standing is usually based on the task required, where chair is only provided as a necessity like work that requires higher precision or a certain type of dexterity.
Would probably see chairs for something like component soldering or sewing.
Otherwise they could easily fashion all those workers with a cheap plastic chair in the picture since they clearly spent the money on proper attire and health standards.
Looks like seafood processing, which I’ve never seen a chef or cook do sitting lol. Have seen squatting but I don’t think that counts.
It’s good not be sedentary for the majority of the day obviously, but it’s nice to offload your feet at some intervals if you’re not varying the load on the foot and legs. Standing still for hours is torture.
well our lifestyle doesn’t support itself
hey now.
are you telling me all those lemmy.ml users were lying when they told me that China is the best? that China is better than the US? that China is a great place to work and live?
What brand of shoe were they making?
Probably all of them
