Thread regarding Boeing Co. layoffs

Hey, Remember When......

Most Boeing employees were arrogant, entitled A$$hats?

Yeah, they still are, but now they have a stunned, confused look on their face.

A Boeing bailout is to the coronavirus crisis what the bank bailouts were
to the financial crisis:
a systemically important — but currently deeply unpopular — company
getting a handout after its own missteps weakened its defenses in a time
of need.

Boeing has many top level managers that are role models of behavior and reason
Then there are those that can’t do but manage, frustrated they claw and slash at
subordinates to prove their dominants and self worth by tearing others down.

The few of us with real world skills are despised belittled and verbally/emotionally abused by the inept mediocre masses of lazy F that infest lazy B.

Delta Airlines cutting 40% of its operations
https://borneobulletin.com.bn/delta-slashes-flights-by-40-per-cent-as-virus-cripples-global-travel/

UNITED STATES (AP) – Delta Air Lines will cut passenger-carrying capacity
by 40 per cent to deal with a nosedive in travel demand, and it is talking to
the White House and the United States (US)Congress about assistance to get
through a downturn caused by the new corona virus.
The cut in capacity over the next few months is the largest in Delta’s history
Surpassing reductions that were made after the September 11 attacks…

Oh, and no city is safe we have been in a massive storm for a year now.
The Storm has matured into a full Cat 5, think of the Roaring 40’s
Lash yourself to the Mast; it is out of everyone’s hands…

I would say it's more like arrogant and greedy, and confused and cowardly. Especially in all levels of management. They are like Daffy duck, except uglier and at least daffy duck is funny

Dear @jmo / It’s Me @oki - (“Very Well Paid” engineer)
As hard as many of us try to communicate our concerns to management
The bottom Line, is always Coast and Production Rate at the expense of quality.
Look at the principled managers that have left.
The Un-Realistic rate of 57 a month without the personnel or the supply chain
To adequately support the dream was folly, we all knew it. {This was at 42}

Pie charts and spread sheets can help in understanding the production process.
They cannot direct the production process, (The Emperor's New Clothes)

I Feel For Ben he’s a good man, a general in the trenches of WW1.
A losing proposition for all, yet still the orders come down from the board room.

When the MBA’s are locked up in the back office’s again Boeing will be Boeing.
Build a Good Product and prosperity will bloom.
Spread too much fertilizer on it, it burns, wither’s and dies.
MBA’s have No Business being section or team managers in production.

We at Boeing were able to sell an expensive (High Value Product) based on the
Boeing reputation, The Gold Standard In Aviation.

That reputation is now gone, so now what do we do, sell a cheap knock off
Oh wait we did that with the 737 Max Albatross

Dear “Very Well Paid” engineer,
It is this type of ignorance and entitlement mindset they has caused things to go astray. We need clear communication from the bottom up not just from the top flowing down. The belittlement that you just shared shows why communication is not clear, not respected, and leaves a huge communication gap. Please be the change and be a leader. Being a leader that people will want to be like. We all work hard 😓 or at least some of us that produce. We need to respect and VALUE others.

My Career is long and diverse; I am very well paid in engineering.
From my experience, the arrogance of Boeing employees is hung from
the end product, not from their skill or professionalism.
From Day One I have been amazed at the circus that is Boeing.
In all fairness it’s not just me, many of us share in this amazement.
