  1. The arrogance and greed of Boeing management is going to eventually destroy this company

  2. They are losing more just because they want to continue to low ball their employees…. With what they are losing they could have giving their employees their pension back …

  3. Move the factories to TX. It is no longer the 1960s.
    Seattle is a tech hub flooded with Amazon/Meta/Google/Microsoft workers, not a factory town.
    There is no hope trying to match the cost of living in the city. Out of control labor cost is a major competitive disadvantage against Airbus and Chinese 919.

  4. The workers would literally have lost income with this contract. The "25%" is based on 2008 wages and is basically 9% divided over 4 years. They took off a bonus that is thousands in yearly wages with no replacement. They lowered the health ins cost from paychecks- but increased deductibles and copays astronomically– the contract offer was a shell game meant to fool the public, and-if they could- fool employees.
    95% of 33,000 people do not reject a contract and 96% do not vote to strike if the contract is even remotely reasonable. It would have been a way closer vote if it wasn't such a terrible offer

  5. Just like the Hollywood Strikes I pray they NEVER END!
    Remember it was Renton that didn't bolted the door (plug).

  6. Wow what political party was in charge then?

  7. They are NOT MACHINISTS !! They are factory workers, most hired with no trade or minimum skills and trained to do a specific operation. Machinist is a SKILLED TRADE…….

  8. Do they not know they can change their job if they don't like their employer. Stop black mailing your company.

  9. If management would stop being so greedy with their salaries and shareholders, the stupid golden parachutes, most of all that money could be funneled back into the company and their workers that are the ones doing the work. Well, Boeing, well deserved

  10. Tua needs to retire. He’s clearly concussion prone and needs to put his health first

  11. Why are union workers the most obese one on the job site

  12. "We can not afford to give our employees a raise." – Millionaire Executives

  13. economic sabotage. who are the Russian agent provocateurs embedded within the Unions ?

  14. I met Carla last night, what an amazing person. GO IAM751

  15. Where’s Harris

  19. Union strong…….go IAM……

  20. damn- didnt know ABC fell off lol
