lol. lmao.
Get fucked Boeing.
Millennials are killing the 737 Max industry!
Won’t someone please buy our airborne death trap?
The US government has entered the chat
Boeing hitmen would like to know your location
He’s booked through at least the rest of the year.
In that case, are you looking for an exciting new career opportunity?
What year is it? The 737 Max was a certified death trap since 2018.

This. I made sure to never set foot in a newer Boeing since those grounded models were ungrounded.
shit falling apart, again and again and again and…
“y u no buy our shit? :(”
If this continues, bailout incoming
Let them fail!
Same company that has the Starliner with leaks staying at the ISS. Not a good look.
Marketing department is going to be working overtime.
The brand new 737 Boeing Goeing. Cheaper than all others on the market with a 15 year warranty. Gauareteed to keep you Goeing. For fucks sake, we’re Boeing.
This is a whole new remodeled version of our Max that had various issues that concerned our buyers, now. We’ve added an onboard AI that will detect which items to advertise to customers based off past sales and gender/sex/age/height/and weight. Up your sales numbers guaranteed to increase from the info we scrape off the Internet or buy from Google directly. Built in auto serve tray so the hosts don’t need to find the orders, they are auto placed on a exiting conveyor that feeds right onto the cart you roll up!
These beauties are all thrown in for free when you invest in your future that’s Goeing places.
*Doors may become from nowhere, wheels may fall off, leaks may occur, but your profits will skyrocket. Landings not guaranteed.
Landings not guaranteed.
Lmao, that one got me.
Could it be a purposeful effort by foreign entities to discredit and dilute american corporate giants reputations by placing sympathetic people into positions that would bring that about?
“reputations” hehe, nice one.
People downvote you, but that could well be true.
Then still the right course of action would be very different from supporting and bailing out etc the contaminated organization.
And then one can also think about other organizations possibly contaminated.
why would boeing need help damaging its reputation? It seems to be doing a great job of that on its own.
So you dont think the people running things could be put there by any actions of a foreign nature? For instance a hiring manager, hr executive, or someone in a similar role?
I think its more if you look at what they did and the problems they’re having all came after a merger with McDonnel Douglas and seem to be a typical case of corporate “fire people for reporting bad numbers” aka “kill the messenger” along with lots of outsourcing. Which results in numbers go up but at the cost of QA/QC.
This is all standard reaganomics and like nearly every other company that went down this road while selling real physical products they’re now reaping the fruits they’ve sown for over 20 years.
Sounds reasonable
Ahahah. No.
Just a thought
Not everything has to be a conspiracy.
GOOD. How are those profits looking now, you murderous fucks?
Fine when the government steps in to bail them out.
they need to make a reality show out of what it looks like to be held accountable and go through the justice system, using some of these soulless pieces of shit as examples. showcase the turmoil of the disgraced family torn apart and offer no help. the public can laugh at their pain the same way they certainly laugh at the issues of the common people they neglect and oppress.
Essentially John Oliver’s episode on Boeing.
I’ll have to check that out then
They’ll just sack some more engineers to cut costs, and hire more sales & marketing.
More sales people to handle all the sales they’re not getting?
An engineer makes engines and a sales persons makes sales, right?
Actually a sailor makes sales.
“Sack”
stuff them into a sack maybe
You can only do so much marketing though. People don’t want to fly in these planes if it means a huge risk to their life. It’s simpler to just say no thanks. Businesses don’t want them if customers aren’t going to pay to fly on them. So marketing can only do so much. In the end your product needs to work. If it doesn’t, then again people don’t want to fly in them… And so on.
Unlike a lot of sectors though, Airbus knows what they’re doing and is a high profile alternative, and unlike the US, hasn’t yet completely internalized our sociopathic greed disease to our degree, despite the global economic pressure we inflict on other nations encouraging them to betray and cause harm to their own societies and citizens if it means an extra nickel of short term private profit.
Don’t worry though, the UK has fallen to the greed disease, and our capitalists are bribing and coercing their way eastward, and they won’t stop until they either are physically stopped by something like climate change, or make the world forget that Economies are lowly tools that are supposed to exist solely to benefit the people of the society they are a lowly tool for.
Also Boeing is buying back it’s fuselage supplier that it originally spun of into it’s own business (because it wasn’t profitable for Boeing back then).
The problem now is that supplier also makes fuselages for Airbus. So Boeing is gonna be making them for Airbus…
Oof. Oligopolies/duopolies shouldn’t exist, but here we are.
Ehhh there’s… Embraer?
Bring back grumman!
won’t stop until they […] are physically stopped by something like climate change
Ah I see you’re an optimist.
I have just come to acceptance with who we are, and enjoy the accidental poetry of our reckless worship of greed/gluttony/growth/metastasis being our, accelerating going by the latest science still going on deaf ears, end.
I also enjoy all the very corporate culture like bargaining that’s going on with cold, hard, unflinching physics. Oh we won’t make our non-binding emissions goals and grid standards, so we’ll just roll those back, the climate will understand!
We’re tackling our own self-inflicted, reverse terraforming climate disaster with the stages of grief because we refuse to stop and change how we live to find homeostasis with this world, so this isn’t going to end well, and just with like clean coal/corn ethanol/plant a tree offsets/planet scale carbon scrubbers and all the other private profit driven snake oil “solutions,” we aren’t going to science up a magic bullet to save us from the epically irresponsible actions of our epically irresponsible species.
we aren’t going to science up a magic bullet to save us from the epically irresponsible actions of our epically irresponsible species.
In-fuckin-deed. All the talk about “carbon capture” schemes makes my skin crawl.
Well it’s either that or delusional parasitosis that makes my skin crawl, but anyhow.
Of all the Dystopias, I think we’re closest to Elysium at the moment.
Yeah, although without the cool space station and cyberpunk-ish tech. I doubt we’ll get that far.
I see The Road primarily, but I could also give a nod to The Road Warrior…
Economies are lowly tools that are supposed to exist solely to benefit the people of the society they are a lowly tool for.
What complete gutter trash talk. Economies serve the master of mankind.
Master of mankind
1998 Hell in a cell reference, yeah? That’s the only thing that coherents up this comment
If by mankind you mean about 30kish sociopath families on the backs of billions and to the detriment of the long term climate our only habitat, then sure.
And to be fair, those 30kish sociopath families would largely agree they’re the only mankind that counts.
Sorry about my gutter trash mouth btw, I’ll work on that.
They might start sending assassins to threaten their buyers soon
At least they won’t have to wonder where these severed horse head in the middle of the bed came from.
This is definitely more plausible than their improving build quality
Deserved.
This is the greed that was awesome for the fuckers profiting of cutting the costs of engineering…now we reap the benefits of losing a worldwide prominence in aviation because some scum from McDonald Douglass wanted to get rich…at American expense.
I’m sure the millionaire dipshits who cut corners and killed people are super worried.
laughs in golden parachute
Yeah, yeah, but the executives that took the various decisions that made Boeing what it is now are even more millionaire than when they started at Boeing and will not see the inside of a jail cell, ever.
So we can all rest easy knowing that those we are constantly told are the most important people who deserve to be paid so much because of being risk takers and wealth creators, will be just fine, as if a few “nobody” whistleblowers had to be taken out, well, that’s a price the trully important risk taking wealth creators were willing to pay.
I was watching this Korean show, they made a whole huge deal about a corporation stealing 5 billion won from the public. I literally burst out laughing when I googled the conversion and it’s 3.5 mil USD, big corporations here steal that amount in a quarter second just by breathing yet in Korea it’s apparently an amount worthy of its own entire show. US is such a fucked oligarchy.
Assuming the show reflects corporate values and isn’t just propaganda like US police shows are intended to make the Korean public (and anyone watching from outside of Korea) think that that’s how that would be treated.
From what I understand, South Korea’s economy is dominated by a small number of mega corps (like Samsung) that try to do pretty much everything.
No need to worry, following what the CEO of Boeing called quality escapes regarding doors falling off, Boeing is now just facing the following profit and customer escapes.
https://www.independent.co.uk/travel/news-and-advice/boeing-alaska-airlines-door-plug-b2477577.html
It’s not so much what the Boeing CEO called the issue so much as a technical term for when a non-conforming product gets sold at its planned inspection operation.
Don’t they make a shitload of weapons though? They could probably never make another commercial airliner again and still do just fine.
The military and civilian divisions will be separate though. .
