Boeing lost all respect when they opend a production plant in North Carolina so they didn't have to follow as strict labor laws as they do in WA. It's no coincidence we're seeing more groundings more frequently since then, company priorities on full display.

Fr. I think they're trading on a lot of previously-earned good will that no longer accurately applies to the company today. The standards that made Boeing what they are simply aren't the same today as when the reputation was built.
