    …well I definitely don’t want to ride on a plane made by a company that spites the workers responsible for keeping it in the air.

    Wasn’t Boeing the one whose wages have been compared to minimum wage jobs despite requiring significantly more expertise and having more responsibilities in case of problems/failures? Even 40% seems low for that.

      Yeah apparently mechanics making like 22 per or something entry level when fastfood in the same are was 20?

      Either way, sounds like their union has been failing them for decades and only now doing something about it.

      All of this can be traced to idiot peasants larping boeing as some sort of god corpo that must be respected. You could say one bad thing without bridgades online prior to the recent developments

      Every middle aged cuck was larping in relation life too lol

      I hope all these clowns learned their lessons… Corpos are trash and executive “leadership” are incompetent 🤡 but more importantly, they are criminals.

        The problem is usually when people start becoming some kind of fandom of specific corporations. There is nothing wrong with praising the company that does something good this month and their competitor next month when they do something well (or criticizing them when they do something bad). The problem starts when people keep praising the same company regardless of what they do. The same applies to other areas like governments or celebrities or political parties as well.

      Boeing is the one found not bothering to check whether plane doors were bolted down, and ended up losing it mid flight. This complete lack of responsibility has been an issue there for a while

        Oh, I was more thinking in terms of judging those percentages specifically. I am well aware that the best thing Boeing could do for aviation safety would be to just close down completely at this point.
