Most factories in China have staff canteens, and the dishes in the canteens are often varied. More importantly, compared with the restaurants outside, the food in the canteen is much cheaper. Ordinary office workers go out to eat at noon, and a meal costs at least tens of dollars, but they can eat it for a few dollars in the staff canteen. Therefore, many employees with poor economic conditions will choose to eat in the canteen.
In a large-scale factory like Foxconn, the staff canteen is naturally different from other factories. In China, Foxconn is a well-known large-scale factory. It has certain branches in different provinces, and the number of employees in the factory is also considerable. Therefore, compared with other small factories, the food in Foxconn factory is generally better, because it needs to accommodate nearly a thousand employees. Moreover, every sales window in the staff canteen has completely different kinds and cuisines.
Every meal, Foxconn employees will rush to the canteen to queue up for dinner. In front of those windows where the food tastes better, employees often queue up and don't mind waiting for a long time at all. In this regard, many netizens are also puzzled. Why do employees choose to line up in front of the window, but they don't want to go out for dinner? You know, it costs money for employees to eat in the staff canteen, so it is better to eat out. In fact, this is mainly because the food in the staff canteen is very cheap.
The staff canteen of Foxconn factory has excellent environment and diverse dishes. It only costs a few dollars to eat several different dishes. However, eating out for a meal costs at least ten or twenty yuan. Even eating big fish and big meat is not very cost-effective for employees. So everyone is willing to take the patience to line up.
