  • Those aren't my employees . Bro.. the whole reason you're there is because you're the boss

    it's not a lapse, when they are informed by labor of the ongoing issues, it's an intentional executive decision to save money. people died because any delay would affect stock prices and that's the no-no spot for aspiring CEO's with golden parachutes, the 'i got mine' mentality will never care about other people that aren't them.

    Eight months and no definitive answers why and how this was allowed to occur. Amazing. Stop production until Boeing finds a problem to fix.

    What’s happened with door? Worker didn’t install 4 bolts, 4 nuts and 4 pins. Is there a quality inspector in this department? It. looks like the Boeing has cut the quality inspectors and save money.
  • @SusanKay-
    Redundancy in safety systems is expensive in an aircraft, but it keeps bad things from becoming worse in a failure. 'Expensive' is incompatible with a for-profit company's bottom line. Choices will be made, people will be blamed.
