Boeing hitman is booked for the rest of the year killing off remaining whistleblowers.

Good time to organize IMHO

I wonder if the hitmen could be unionized

it is a job like any other, no reason why they can't be unionized even tho they bootlickers.

Drove past em yesterday, gave em the BEEPBEEP of SOLIDARITY! On my motorcycle. So it's really more of a meepmeep but still! Solidarity for us all!

Haha, the few times I had to use my motorcycle horn I felt really emasculated by its weak beep.

Riders like to replace with loudest possible horn for safety

Boeing still has engineers?

[–] [email protected] 11 points 7 months ago

Somebody has to sign to off on the paper work the suits botched. We are a country of laws, god damn it!

I didn't think their problems were engineer related, but production and quality control. I don't really know much though.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 7 months ago

Engineer here! They will just fire competent engineers and hire less competent ones until they get someone who will sign off on anything.

Double win for them, as they pay less and less every time.

I just love seeing worker solidarity.
