Boeing bosses are staring down the barrel.
The twists and turns of the past week paint a picture of managers badly wrong-footed by the depth of fury among workers who tossed out a 25% pay rise deal and launched strike action.
“They probably didn’t think that we had enough people for the strike,” Kushal Varma, a Boeing mechanic, told Reuters. “But this is a movement of people who are willing to put their livelihoods on the line to get what’s fair.”
Awww. Those poor bosses. They might have to make some hard choices; kind of like the people they employ who may have to choose between food or rent.
I realize airline mechanics make half decent money, but still. No sympathy (Edit: for Boeing, if that wasn’t completely clear).
Now, a proverb a Russian I met early in my career told me: every man is the architect of their own hemhroids I swear the guy was the next Pushkin

Gross and stupid take on this.
