Pyramid of mismanagement, 20 layers deep, cashing in.

They will need lots of safe spaces to cry about. Hopefully, their safe spaces weren’t built by BA.

What DEI, ESG, CRT, etc. have done to a leader in aerospace.

If we only had 60s technology and those black ladies doing all the math, we’d have rescued those astronauts and Perhaps even gone to the moon (again)

“We hate SpaceX,” he added. “We talk s–t about them all the time, and now they’re bailing us out.”

Had you been competent you might have polished your skills instead and tried to get a job with Musk.

Good. They should be humiliated. They’re so far behind SpaceX I doubt Elon and crew give them a second thought. Boeing is late, over budget and what they delivered is an unsafe bucket of bolts. Heads need to roll at Boeing.

All I know is that Boeing retirees are carefully watching their pension figures. This could be really, really bad.

And good for SpaceX and Elon, who is more interested in being successful and efficient than woke.

SpaceX is not an “upstart rival” to Boeing. The competition, if there ever was one, ended years ago, Boeing lost. SpaceX is now the preeminent space travel company in the world. No one else is close. Boeing has become a farce.

Perhaps instead of hating Space X they could spend their time and efforts in creating excellence and they wouldn’t need to be embarrassed and humilated.

Hate to say it Boeing, but you folks have gotten pretty sloppy.

As an aside, I just made the dire error of clicking on your “About” page. Ouch! My eyes! My brain! You should post a warning to any who foolishly may venture therein.

I would wait until after they attempt to bring Starliner back before complaining and blaming NASA. If it makes it back safely, Boeing people can make the claim that it would have been fine with the astronauts on board. If it doesn’t, we’ll then the Boeing people should be thanking NASA for not letting them try with people on board.

Spacex is the real deal…. No longer ‘upstart’

Boing is old decrepit and crony.

Humiliated? Participation trophies don’t work here when folks lives are at stake, when you can’t complete your job because your equipment fails miserably do to incompetence.

That entire dept should be shitcanned.

Does anyone have that Boeing video where nothing but women - all shapes (mostly orbs) and colors - is dancing at what looks like a conference where the vendors have informational booths set up?

Elon while Make it pay per view. I’d cough up the cash to watch Boeing be humiliated on live stream TV. Then when that star liner crap is cut loose from the ISS and tumbles into the atmosphere and burns up Boeing stock should burn up as well.

They launched despite knowing about the leak.
Whoever made that call and/or who forced them to make it should be fired.

Well Boeing, be a better company. Work harder. Don’t accept mediocrity. Insist that you do everything right and insist on the highest quality of work and employee.
