Well now that is an interesting perspective. I say that because it appears to me that BA has chosen to take control of it's own destiny.

People get riled up when their livelihoods are at stake.

I'll give drew some slack here because of that fact.




But this IS the Dark Side and everyone here is an asshole - why else would someone be here?

Be advised, and factor that in before replying, and you'll be in good shape.

even though yer an asshole, I gotta agree with you


I grew up in home with a conservative Christian mom and a union boilermaker dad. I can remember every election. It was a crap shoot as to whether we were eating McD's with dad or caserole with mom... Once elections were over it was back to caserole wink

My uncle just got laid off at Boeing Everett after the vote. He does IT stuff but he already has a retirement from IBM.

I went to Charleston for work back in November of 1987. Nice place. The people are pretty laid back and pleasant. In fact my wife went there for work earlier this year and enjoyed the place.

Appears that South Carolina is offering corporate welfare to entice Boeing to the tune of $1B. Sounds like they have some problems and have to send engineers from Seattle to fix their problems. It could turn out that the unions could organize the workers. Don't leave the product line without a note.

It's sad that Drew decided to leave based on the fact that some people disagreed with his view of the labor vs. Boeing issue.
