Boeing communications boss Niel Golightly has resigned over a sexist article he wrote three decades ago opposing women’s service in the military.

His exit leaves the embattled planemaker searching for a new top spokesman as it works to get its troubled 737 MAX jet flying again.

Golightly stepped down Thursday as Boeing’s senior vice president of communications following an employee complaint about the 1987 article, which he called “embarrassingly wrong and offensive.”

That last name of his must make him sick of being asked about Audrey Hepburn’s character.

I bet his 1987 article was just fine. It is today that is messed up.

If someone secretly recorded everything I said for 3 days, I’d never work again on this planet! :)

Many women would just run up and stab me after hearing the recording :)

Or, you could do a web search to find out what "/sarc" in a form message indicates.

Cancel culture. Boeing goes to extreme lengths to accommodate black racists.

While Boeing is losing money to the tune of billions of dollars and is laying off tens of thousands of employees, they spent the past month holding expensive employee meetings talking about how white people can do better at race relations.

I’ll do it. Has to be better than the McDonnell Douglas accountant culture they ended up with after the merger.

Well... it seems this week we traded a person at the back end of his 30 year career for a Harvard Deloitte snowflake at the start of her career.

Niel Golightly is a weenie. And Boeing is composed of weenies for not retaining him. The big corporations are allies of the leftist radicals in this war for America's culture and way of life.

Boeing laid him off for saying women should not be involved in combat three decades ago - had absolutely zero to do with black racists.

Nothing wrong about his opinion. The military is now pretty trashed. We live in cancel culture.

I think conservatives should get with the program. If we can’t beat them, join them. Join the cancel culture. Join the Defund movement.

We cancel the Democrat party for supporting slavery, the Confederacy, and the KKK. We should demand that Democrats at least change their name if not disband entirely. Then we defund the NFL, NBA, Hollywood, and others. Don’t go to their events or watch on TV.

I know this kind of behavior goes against our nature, but they started this crap.

I guess Boeing’s management had their testicles removed by the #metoo crowd.
