Congats, nice to be free at last

I worked for Boeing for a short while. Worked on stuff that wasn't intended to fly far and then blew up. So didn't have to worry about staying in the air for long.

I was in awe and appreciative of the amazing work done at Boeing over the years. Such a great company, tough to see them go through hard times.

Congrats! Does CB posting increase or decrease after stopping work?

Probably about the same. But the guilt factor of spending time on CB goes down dramatically!

Absolutely. I would have no hesitation at all flying on Boeing planes - except for the COVID stuff. But even for that
