>then why are workers jumping off of buildings in china?> I have read (and heard on NPR) that the suicide rates at Foxconn were lower than the suicide rates in the general population in China. Don't people commit suicides in other parts of the free world? Some percentage of humans are genetically predisposed towards suicidal behavior, unfortunately. And I know that the conditions in Indian call centers and IT companies are no worse or probably better than US call centers, except for having to work a lot more night shifts. -Arun
