Apparently a group of Foxconn employees set fire to their factory after management attempted to coerce workers into overtime labor without compensation. </p>
<p><a href="https://www.gadgetteaser.com/tag/foxconn">Foxconn&#8217;s</a> Juarez, Mexico facility uses transportation trucks to ferry workers to and from the plant every day. Yesterday, supervisors at the plant told workers that the trucks had been delayed at a military checkpoint and instructed the employees to continue working until the trucks arrived. As it turns out, the trucks were sitting in the parking lot, presumably parked-in on purpose. It wasn&#8217;t the first time the factory had pulled a stunt like this, so the workers decided to get even. They torched the gymnasium, which is where the plant keeps all of its finished cell phones and computers. </p>
<p>Don&#8217;t be surprised if there&#8217;s suddenly a bit of an <a href="https://www.gadgetteaser.com/category/iphone">iPhone</a> shortage in certain parts of the country. </p>
