Honestly, the Seattle Times is lucky to have two such investigative journalists on staff. This could be Pulitzer Prize material.

Very detailed explanation of what happened.

I am hoping the new Boeing CEO can start changing the corporate culture and turning things around.

Boeing plans to lay off about 10% of its workers in the coming months, about 17,000 people, as it continues to lose money and tries to deal with a strike that is crippling production of the company’s best-selling airline planes.

New CEO Kelly Ortberg told staff in a memo Friday that the job cuts will include executives, managers and employees.

The company has about 170,000 employees worldwide, many of them working in manufacturing facilities in the states of Washington and South Carolina.

Somewhere between the mechanics ability for working on a door or a plug, I’m concerned about the “Gucci fragrance sample” that may have caused some distraction. It seems to have gone south at that point.
