Well this is definitely a good time for Boeing to do a stock buyback for sure.

I would like to know a few useful salary ranges. 30% of what?

There is a trend of doing no increases for years and crowing about being responsible. When an increase is needed then badmouthing the large percentage increase. Responsible would have been to increase every year by at least inflation.

“The union made non-negotiable demands far in excess of what can be accepted if we are to remain competitive as a business,”

My dude, you literally have no competition! Your management bankrupted them by doing the same shit there that you are doing here! You know, before you all managed to fail upwards.

If you manage to be insolvent while running one of the largest monopolies on the planet, you should get checked out by a doctor, because it takes more than either base grade stupid or base grade malicious to be able to do that.

Also, isn’t the whole reason Boeing is in hot water since they can’t build shit right the fact they tried to fuck over the unionized workforce by building another factory in the Deep South, but the shit that comes out of there is falling apart? Seems to me, they need the union, not the other way around.

Uhm.

That doesn’t seem like the right idea.

“Fine, you don’t like what we offer? Keep striking. See if we care!”

Really makes you wonder if they understand how money works

Last month, Boeing announced what it called its “best and final” offer to workers, which proposed a 30% rise over four years - lower than the 40% being demanded by the union.

I vote the union should increase its demand to 50% now.

Surely that will make them less unhappy!
