I recall reading one Brit's assessment of a Nike "sweatshop" in Vietnam. One of the main concerns of the employees was that overtime opportunities be provided.
I'm now considering an out-of-town consulting engagement, and I'd much prefer to work 10+ hours four days a week and have a long weekend with my family. Perhaps these workers are taking this to the extreme -- six months on and six months off?

- ibsulon 17y agoThese workers are taking it to the extreme: 12 months on, their kids have a shot at going to college rather than working in a factory.
- ShabbyDoo 17y agoDoesn't the article state that many workers are quite young? Perhaps younger siblings will receive schooling using some of their earnings?
