Curiosidade do dia

Um artigo interessante sobre as fábricas que trabalham para a Shein, "The truth behind your $12 dress: Inside the Chinese factories fuelling Shein's success".

Gosto particularmente do último parágrafo:

"It's dark outside and workers are filing back into factories after their dinner for the final stretch. She admits the hours are long, but "we get on well with each other. We are like a family".

Hours later, after many workers head home for the night, the lights in several buildings stay on.

Some people work until midnight, one factory owner told us. They want to earn more money, he said.

After all, in London, Chicago, Singapore, Dubai and so many other places, someone is hunting for their next bargain."

Quando eu era miúdo ouvia um familiar usar com frequência a expressão:

"Podem limpar as mãos à parede!"
