Theres no website for international layoffs. There's just not enough workforce out there to be posting anything of value. Everyones totally clueless.
The people in the KNOW never say anything. Take all these wrapping boelube prostate exam posters with a grain of salt. They know nothing. Just getting you riled up. They know NOTHING. When the shoe drops, you'll know. Sorry, wish i could post more. Not worth the bother.
Lost of people laid off in the region surrounding the Socialist Republic of Seattle. Boeing isn’t done there yet either. They’ve still got another VLO followed by another massive ILO right after the first of the year. Then they’ll move 737 production to Everett after moving 100% of 787 production to the east coast. The end of the 747 will certainly free up some capacity as well. Big changes coming folks. Lots of people looking for new jobs in the near-term too. Fasten your seatbelts!
