That’s a retarded question. It takes a complete idiot to think such a forecast is possible. Perhaps you should look in the mirror to see just how dumb Boeing has become since you claim to have worked there for so long.

“So for the record, you believe Boeing will go completely out of business.”

“For the record...”? Really, FR is a record?

Also, I never said “completely out of business”. Only an idiot would conclude that is the only means to a business’s end, but, you did work at Boeing so I expect nothing less than idiocy.

Ya know, your attitude is typical of Boeing management: We’re not out of business yet so things are not that bad.

Your response was the retarded one. To be expected, I guess.

It also applies to political figures like Mitt Romney and Bibi:
It actually goes to the MBA programs before 1960. Those programs taught to get profit today and not worry about tomorrow, to cut the lower 10% of the performing people every year to scare the upper performers into more performance, to produce products at the lowest quality possible for the lowest cost, and to sell products at the highest cost. It taught monopolies are to be sought after, to buy competitors and reduce downward pressures on prices and upward pressures on quality which will only increase production costs.

The MBA programs killed America, which is why I never hire anyone with an MBA. There is far too much risk that they have learned these terrible business practices that kill companies. The MBA crowd are nothing but corporate raiders. They seek short term gains to look good at the expense of long term survival. They refuse to fund long term research and development, so the company becomes weak, anemic, and dies. I call it the ‘MBA 3/5 Plan’: They have a 5 year plan but they, personally, are out in 3 years with all the value of the company in their pockets, leaving the company with nothing.

Boeing CEO to step down in broad management shake-up as 737 Max crisis weighs on aerospace giant

https://www.cnbc.com/2024/03/25/boeing-ceo-board-chair-commercial-head-out-737-max-crisis.html

CEO Dave Calhoun will step down at the end of 2024 in part of a broad management shake-up for the embattled aerospace giant.

Larry Kellner, chairman of the board, is also resigning and will not stand for reelection at Boeing’s annual meeting in May. He will be succeeded as chair by Steve Mollenkopf, who has been a Boeing director since 2020 and is a former CEO of Qualcomm. Mollenkopf will lead the board in picking a new CEO, Boeing said.

And Stan Deal, president and CEO of Boeing Commercial Airplanes, is leaving the company effective immediately. Moving into his job is Stephanie Pope, who recently became Boeing’s chief operating officer after previously running Boeing Global Services.
