Did everyone here forget that covid started in 2020? This article tries to knock on foxconn by suggesting that their "market fluctuations" claim is an excuse... DURING PEAK COVID. I wonder why they couldnt hire more people or have more of their building occupied... must have been BLATANT CONSERVATIVE LIES

Ohh I'm sorry I didn't realize that now that covid is over this multi billion company is coming back to fulfill it's promises. That's on me, I must have missed that part.

Thats really bad faith, dont do that
You are throwing the baby with the bath water. Almost every company had to reduce size, reduce occupancy and reduce output. Disregarding the impact of covid when that was a major reason for companies failing is disingenuous.

This corrupt company worked with the corrupt republican governor to really hurt my state. They can get fucked and I have zero interest in giving them any benefit of the doubt nonsense. This was all planned.
