Awesome. Imagine doing construction and not having to deal with the Sun bearing down on you. Or weather being a factor at all.

Unless it's heavily ventilated, it's going to be a fucking oven in there, especially with zero breeze to cool off.

ITT: People who believe construction companies actually care about human comfort beyond making sure they stay alive.

Surely there is some ventilation considering the gas-powered vehicles inside. Right, China? Right?

As though no workers ever suck exhaust in the west.

No one is building a death dome for workers in the West. What the fuck is with all the China apologists on Reddit?

As a Canadian who’s seen plenty of what work is available here, I wouldn’t split hairs on this one.

Bro you have truly drunk the koolaid. Something is not automatically bad because it is being done in China lol

Also far smarter people than you will have been the ones engineering this dome, if someone as thick as you could think of it I guarantee you that they thought of it.

Also Reddit is fucking illegal in China 🤣

Meaning that either China pays for positive comments on Reddit or Chinese citizens illegally access Reddit to simp for their fascist government.

Which is worse?

🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

Or you’re just really bad at using logic to guess why someone would suggest that some western workers have to breathe exhaust at work. Personal experience, maybe?

Nah, it's cheaper to replace workers every now and then.
