The poetry and brief life of a Foxconn worker
I &quot;worked&quot; at the Xingda Hongye PCB factory in Zhongshan for a month. They let me stay in the factory dormitory and eat in the cafeteria for free, but didn&#x27;t pay me.<p>It was good! Afterwards I got a job in Shenzhen that paid, so I moved. But the Xingda workers were from all over China, each with fascinating stories, and very happy to meet a foreigner.<p>I wish I could go back there now. I just finished 4 years working at a microSD card company in Taiwan. I&#x27;ve been trying to find a job since March; unemployed since August. I&#x27;ve given up on my dreams, and I&#x27;ll take anything. I don&#x27;t even know how to apply for jobs now. The only two interviews I had were from people who already worked in the company telling their HR to talk to me. Recruiters are ignoring me. Prayer hasn&#x27;t worked. Sharing side projects on HN hasn&#x27;t worked. Please tell me the email address of someone who can give me food and shelter.
