"The workers always tell us they resemble machines," she told AppleInsider. "Their regular day at Foxconn is waking up, queuing up for baths and work, work and go back to the dormitory and sleep. They do not have a social life and they are doing the same monotonous task in the factory for thousands of times a day. If they are not efficient enough or they make some mistakes, they will be yelled at by their supervisor or punished."

Sounds
exactly like the years I worked at Cargil in High River.
Pushed like machines? Check.
Repeating the same task thousands of times a day? Yep.
Punishment and yelling for poor performance? Sure thing.
That is the life of working on an assembly (or disassembly in my case) line. The only difference is they live at the plant, and I assume work longer hours, but I cannot verify that from the article.
