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 NOT say one bad thing without bridgades online prior to the recent developments even if true
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.
My dad worked for Boeing in an engineering capacity for his entire career, and my uncle did as well. Boeing used to be one of the best companies to work for, with great benefits and respectable wages. My uncle was union, and it seemed there were some pretty awful changes around 10 years ago, because he lost his job and rehired in a worse position at a different unit, but he was already close to retirement so he just stuck it out. My dad wasn’t union and his position didn’t have any issues, but he was grandfathered into the pension so he got a pretty good deal. I also remember a lot of the jobs leaving WA and moving to SC and other places around 15-20 years ago (again, this is just what my dad told me), so I know at least around then they were looking to cut costs.
So it seems like something changed fundamentally in the last 10-15 years. I didn’t work there, so I don’t know if that timeline is accurate, but Boeing today is nothing like the Boeing my dad worked for throughout his career. And it’s really sad, because Boeing used to be the place to work in the Seattle area before Microsoft and Amazon completely took over. These days, I’d probably point to Wayerhauser, but that’s also based on old info (my neighbor loved working there and thought everyone was well treated).

Exactly!
