- seanmcdirmid 7y agoI think the system in Europe is more about practicing skilled trade than just doing unskilled factory work. If this story was about kids apprenticing to be plumbers, then I think there would be much less outrage.
- dragonelite 7y agoDepends on the course, same practical internship are pretty much of the level of unskilled work. Still not okay without at least a decent pay if you ask me.
- seanmcdirmid 7y agoI don’t think 16 and a half kuai is very decent, but these kids are mostly from rural areas so it might seem like a good deal to them.
- tluyben2 7y agoI do not know how it is now, but when I worked with companies doing apprenticeships for electricians in the Netherlands a while ago, I noticed most of them (the “children”) did unskilled or no work at all and did not care because the company signed off on their work so they would graduate.
