Blowback???? Is being “unalived” blowback???
They call it the "pension" plan at Boeing.
Well, the recoil could be considered blowback to the Boeing Assassin...,
“Sometimes, they blow up, sometimes they disappear into thin air”
Blowback? Isn’t that what happens when a gun shoot …
With Boeing whistleblowers get the "Hillary" treatment.
He doesn’t care! He’s leaving! To him this was just three hours of discomfort. He and his predecessor should be in jail
Yeah but worse case scenario they'll get several hundred million in a severance package and live in luxury forever. Two tiered system for sure.
He goes back to the board of directors once he resigns.... I believe they’re the ones who run the show
@@bettycrocker3425bingo. The CEO is an elected position by the board of directors and share holders. Don’t forget the billionaires that own parts of Boeing that push for safety disregards
He is out on vacation now in his yacht. Do your homework.
Perhaps the immediate successor too.
The Board of Directors need to be testifying also. This all happened during their watch too.
The SEC has been doing nothing, which is surprising since directors are accountable
CEOs are paid to take risk, go to hearings, legal battles, and risk jail.
@@q9r8s7t6u5v4w3x2y1z0 I don't find it surprising, I am sure SEC are well compensated to look other way.
CEO received a 45% raise to $33MILLION / year. The real workers receive 1% raise year over year.
True. Most IAM Boeing employees make about $40 an hour after @ 25 years of being there!!!! That's a sobering thought
Tou undersatnd the notion of risk right?
@@helloimdanhe didn’t do anything to justify that raise. You can’t argue that.
@@helloimdan what risk is he taking?
Absolutely stupid levels of money for at best abysmal levels of performance.
Is blowback more commonly as “death”?
Well, guns have blowback..
i think that is corporate for suicided...
Why cant they just be honest and say Safty are none of Boeing Concern ...
Is it really that hard to be honest? *Honesty* *is* *such* *a* *lonely* *word,* *Everyone* *is* *so* *untrue.* By Billy Joel
CEO: I don't know anything and I'll be sure that neither will you...
Get's paid $33 million a year to know nothing.
🤣 🤣 🤣
“If it’s Boeing, I ain't going”
This man is paid $137,500 every day (8 hours) ?!
That is $18000/hour.
What a complete waste of money. It's disgusting.
Ok so you go to school and get degrees and whatever else it takes to get to his position and then talk that jazz.
@@benliv3009 Oh please! His position has NOTHING to do with academic preparation or business experience, he's part of the golden boys club and had connections to get to that role. And just look at the way he talks and how he expresses himself, nothing but a self-conceited egotistical maniac. Boeing has no one to blame but themselves and their so called "board of directors" which are a joke! Period.
Hey Safty amirite XD
@@benliv3009funny how you types swing between "shoulda gone trades if you didnt want debt" and "CEOs 'deserve' their ridiculous pay because they're academics" (HOW)
CEO's are making more than ever at any point in history. You think they're paid based on merit? How far is that boot down your throat.
What does he actually do that makes him worth $33 million a year?
I have no idea
Isn't it amazing how much some of the stupidest people make? It's almost like if you have the capacity to say the right things to the right people and have no morals you can make more than people that actually bring value to a company.
He saved Boeing a lot of money by cost cutting measures. Made the company lean and mean. So there.
To BS!
@@pigslefatsand? I could do that myself if you put me in that position, better than this murderer. Why isn’t he paid 55k a year? Doesn’t seem like he literally works that much at all. No one deserves 33 MILLION for the work they do. No one.
Dead men tell no truth
He said Boeing retaliated against whistleblowers. He was trying to say that Boeing assassinated whistleblowers.
Straight up hired Agent 47
Why not counter-strike?
He said that people get fired for retaliating. Meaning, people that retaliated against whistleblowers have been fired for their mistreatment of whistleblowers. 🙄
@@eboomer are you not aware of the two Whistlerblowers who died from "suicide"?...read between the lines what OP is saying..they were murdered on his watch.
@@whitegoodman7465 That paranoid piece of wild speculation on your part, has nothing to do with my comment...
"I don`t know, but I will follow up" I guess this is the phrase they are advised by their lawyers to say when they don`t want to say anything.
plug doors fall off , 2 whistleblowers were shot to death
Proof?
They took their own life and people like you who lie like this make sick
I mean two planes just fell off the air.. wasn’t in America but they’re still people.. human lives were lost.
@danielmartin 🤣🤣 how gullible are you?
@@user-cr1iz8fw6h yo think about it, he’s not he’s got a white name he’s a bot for the boeing lot expose the guy
I've been avoiding airlines that fly Boeing for a while now. Good thing Delta has a huge Airbus fleet.
That's nothing but a kneejerk reaction born out of ignorance. You're needlessly limiting your travel options. Boeing certainly have some problems to solve but their aircraft still have an excellent safety record on par with Airbus.
@@davidkavanagh189 nah
@@davidkavanagh189 Depends on which aircraft, definitely not the 737 MAX, and considering the reports on the 787-9 I would stay away as well especially since their own engineers wont fly on it. The only ignorance here is your own.
@@whostherehuhk Definitely yes the Max. Only 2 have crashed and both for the same reason that has now been solved. There are 1500!!! of them flying with no hull losses since then. That literally makes it one of the safest aircraft ever made. The ignorance is your's sir! Spend some time looking at historical hull loss rates for other aircraft to help you understand. I fully accept Boeing need to pull their socks up big time but the designs are safe and robust. That's simply a fact.
@@davidkavanagh189 I would rather believe the engineers that they are unsafe to fly. 3/1500 in the span of only a few years is an astonishingly bad rate. Especially since none of them were attributable to pilot error but structural problems.
Blowback? You mean recoil.
From what I understand, the aviation sector is brutal. If you speak out against your company, your career is over.
Pls … of course you get in trouble but getting a raise 45% to your anyway to high salary is enough compensation to just retire right away.
Also your life.
Aviation, military, pharma, oil, media, banks probably have something to do with it but idk
@@bsherman8236military industrial complex
@@gbrl_cyber yep, pretty much any large corporation. They don't value transparency. They value company loyalty above all.
Airbus is watching silently. They will probably be the safest air manufacturer to fly with for decades to come.
Boeing is willing to hire undercovers in airbus to sabatoge the company. They wanna wipe out the whole human race. So they can have all the numbers in some account somewhere
Until corporate greed ruins that company too. No company is immune to greedy psychopathic executives.
They are in a different country. A country that has much different values than us.
They are really, really silent. Yeah
@@seanknox7321 amen
An absolutely shameful company.
I disagree, shameful leadership for sure, but a great world class company.
This is most companies today smh
@@user-uz5ko8sv2f people need to understand, common folks do not choose the leader, company do with their millions and millions of campaign money. Goverment does not work for common people, they work for big company. Welcome to the capitalism.
@@user-uz5ko8sv2f When the CEO apologizes for deaths caused by faulty planes, the reputation of the world class engineering team was lost forever.
Interesting how they spell and pronounce murder as "blowback"😂😂😂
Don’t diminish the use of dawn dishsoap as a leak detector
I read recently that it effectively does the same job as the official lubricant, just the manufacturer of the approved lubricant charges a ton more.
Yeah dish soap is an excellent leak detector
@@djmohab2just because it effectively does the same job doesn't mean that it is 100% interchangeable for the same job. Every single thing in aerospace has to be approved and certified for the purpose of safety, whether it's a part, something used to make a part, or even a single step in the process of making the part. When you're paying extra for the certified part, you're not just paying for the materials, you're paying for all the extra certification work and assurances that it will make the best possible product.
I'm not trying to argue with you, or anything (I hope). Just trying to add some context (also an aerospace engineer myself).
Richard “Stolen Valor” Blumenthal
Does he get a bonus each time he orders the assassination of a whistleblower?
He said sorry and we should forgive him 😂😂 every ceo ever
The "E" group at the company and the board should have a decades-worth of clawbacks and if not prosecuted criminally, then at least barred from participating on any board or management and not be allowed to own stocks going forward.
Then they should close down the company.
He is an open murderer that made 33 million dollars a year and he then apologized because he knows there is no accountability,
At the 00:27 second mark someone gets up and yells something like "how could you let this happen to whistleblowers" but they edit it out
1:50 That describtion is crazy 😂
😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😅. The cheese cloth is what got me🤣🤣💀🤦🏾♂️🤡
Remember, these are the same folks who first tried to blame the pilots. Further, to add insult to injury-or, in this case: death-it took every other country in the world to ground the 737 MAX before the United States FAA took action to ground the fleet.
Boeing CEO David Calhoun looks absolutely ridiculous. The Boeing board of directors should fire Calhoun for this embarrassing performance--or lack of performance.
The board needs to go as well
They are all friends and the Q&A is just BS. Combined and prepared between all. Do not be naive. Wars brought changes to societies in the past. Just as accidents. Not bla bla bla.
Blowback firearms, he means.
One of the ways Boeing will retaliate against employees that are vocal about concerns is they will move that employee to a different shift or transfer them to the Everett factory. If the employee lives further south then it will take that employee 2 or more hours just to get to work on time and anywhere from 3-4 hours to get home. The implications are that employees will fall into financial hardship and ultimately leave the company because of it or take courses so that they can find a job within the company that’s closer to home. Also, there’s no guarantee that when they accept the new job they will remain on their current shift and it could take years before they get back to the shift they want to be on. It disrupts the employee financially and also has a negative impact on that employees home life. Most of the senior employees have learned to just keep quiet because they can and will retaliate if you “speak up.”
I didn’t know murder was “blow back” 😂😂😂😂😂 clowns on one side, clowns on the other. Good lord
Lock him up.
How much do the families get from a staged apology in front of Congress. You should be visiting each and everyone of those families individually and apologizing.
That's how the mafia does it. You can talk ,but it might cost you something, maybe even your life
The previous CEO needs to face criminal charges.
I’ve seen enough confirmation hearings and agency oversight sessions, when someone is trying to just get out of the room and not want to answer any question. The responses are always..
1. I don’t have that answer right now
2. I’ll get back to you
3. I have to ask for the information
4. That’s not how I see it
5. We have placed policy to deal with that issue
He literally just said he wants to acquire a company that has sub-par standards in safety.. his own words.
To rectify those problems? - Also his own words? Not sure what your point is...
😂😂😂
@@LAWest culture of lackadaisical attitude has already set in, is he going to improve it by Boeing's culture of lackadaisical attitude?
Is this kind of purchase the norm?
Another used to be good American company, flushed down the toilet.
To be honest that’s a fair solution. Ideally critical components should be fully integrated not subcontracted out where you have a little oversight. So yeah the first step of fixing issue is buying out the poor performing contractors.
@@justinstewart950 ideally they have to bring to court/sue/depose all the top management in both companies, to see who were the cause of lackadaisical culture. Fire the culprits without severance pay and jail those who were negligent.
Then let the new management make the decision to purchase the company.
Where can I watch the full hearing?
CSPAN.
It's the replacement of good business practices by hyper-focusing on financialization and short-term share price support (a major component of CEO compensation which is taxed at a lower rate than hourly wages). This compensation model linking c-suite compensation to shareholder value has broken American business at the expense of the American worker/Taxpayer and It's not just Boeing -
John Deere has laid off roughly 1000 workers so far this year. But the company reported a profit of over $10 billion in 2023. Its CEO received $26.7 million in total compensation. And it spent over $7billion on Stock Buybacks. CORPORATE GREED
When you fear integrity and accountability, you are no longer the good guys.
How do you apologize to the victims families yet your knocking off anybody trying to tell the world what’s really going on 🤔🙄!
Usually, Blowback isn't literally a Blowback operated pistol.
This scumbag needs to be in jail. Stop letting corporate executives hide behind their companies whenever they do evil stuff.
What is his severance pay?
lol as an aircraft mechanic. The dawn is used because it allows you to smooth out the sealant without it sticking to your fingers. Helps when you know what your talking about and they clearly don’t
exactly, I wonder what he'd think when he learns the tyres on his car were fitted with soap
When he says blowback he means the type action in the firearm used to silence the whistleblowers.
This guy needs to be responsible, held accountable and most importantly bear the consequences. 20 years in prison sounds about right.
Boeing’s Chief Executing, I’m sorry “executive” officer
Dave Calhoun, the best manager AIRBUS ever had
Can you ask him who made the hits?
0 people are fired for retaliation against whistleblowers. 2 have died under odd circumstances.
LOL so we are referring to being murdered as "blowblack" ok...
Blowback? I guess that means hiring assassins to silence the whistleblowers?
Liars do not tally their lies; however in the end, their all wrongs come out exactly right.
Being a Boeing whistleblower is one of the most dangerous jobs in the world.
They should get danger pay bonuses
All of this is meaningless until we see people in jail.
I can imagine him slowly rotating on a chair in a Dr Strangelove/Dr Evil lair type boardroom, and suggesting to a boardmember/henchman type underling villain that "Perhaps it is time that [Whistleblower #16] experienced... Some... Blowback."
There should be a 24/7 FBI protection for Boeing whisteblowers.
FBI is in on it.
Huge respect to those Democrat and Republicans together grilling these Boeing rich people, God bless America
Its never going to go any where its just play acting like everything else
@@WarDogLRS it's a very costly long process, at least the victims are heard and we all hope and pray they (Boeing) are served with justice.
Pretty sure one side is and the other side is blaming DEI like the worthless lot they've always been... that other side is the conservatives btw
@@stevenbennion1544 Boeing's effectively an arm of the DoD, nothing will come of this. It's a dog-and-pony show that you'll all forget about at the next planned distraction.
Blowback... died in the hundreds and this man has the audacity to call all those deaths, blowback... I'm gutted speechless
That senator kinda fine 😭😭😭😍😍 especially when he standing on business 😭🤣🤣🤣🫶🏽🫶🏽🫶🏽💖
He has done a good job of making Airbus very successful.
you mean "shootback" or "stab-back"
All levels of Boeing management regardless of being upper, middle or lower levels should be scrutinized and validated about their competence and if any of them are left wanting and don't meet the most stringent qualities then there should be a lot of sackings.
Good to see Richard Blumenthal put his CT attorney general hat on in the Senate. 😮😊
Wow. Such powerful words by the senators. Just words though. This isn't going to change a thing
Yes they are just grandstanding. This is their chance to call attention to themselves..
Cartel company
The extreme bureaucratization of production processes means that people no longer have time to do their duty.
Door seal lubricated with dawn dish soap 😂😂
And in the end they were all working together. This country is despicable
What's the outcome?
Well quite frankly the employees also needs to be accountable. They are the ones building the airplanes not this CEO. So the blood is on all the people who built these planes.
Shut boeing down already and throw this guy in prison!!!!!
I'd love to know updates on the 2 whistleblowers that died after making their claims.
It’s odd seeing Hawley not acting like a 4 year old.
Except he knows nothing about door seal testing ha ha
@@bookoobeans ... said the Boeing middle-manager.
Quote... "we are totally committed to their memory". What the heck does that even mean??? Sounds about as useless as thoughts and prayers.
Guys, don't forget to use the word blowback when referring to a death
At least he’s being honest
Don't understand why that CEO is still in office.
Nobody advertises Airbus better than Boeing.
How do you ensure the video remains engaging from start to finish?
"Face Blowback" is just another word for getting assassinated
"Sometimes"?? Sometimes...
Mate... the reason whistleblowers are a thing at all is that workplaces are refusing to internally mend an issue, so someone has to go public. They always face backlash. That's inherent in blowing the whistle.
This man needs to be behind bars for the rest of his life and his 33 Million dollar salary needs to pay the loved ones of those that died in those crashes
Many companies are putting "Profits" over "Safety"! I think that Worker Unions demanding High Salary is also a major factor for Boeing to keep cost down and "rushing" many jobs! One possible Solution is let "Workers" own majority share and oversee the management of the company, please?
Amazing this man gets a 45% pay increase and he says they made no money.
Just dropping in to say the questions "are so much appreciated".
Boeing also fell out the door with it blowing out.
Is he referring to blowback action pistols...?
Because that'd make sense.
The answer is easy. Refuse to fly on Boeing aircraft.
DoD should investigate Boeing as well.
Why are we letting these criminals profit when honest people are at the ready?
He doesn't care about what happens to Boeing. He got a MASSIVE 33 million dollar paycheck - the woes the company now faces are negligible to this.
If Boeing is so bad then all these people sitting there should take off their suits and ties roll up their sleeves and head to the factory and fix the problems instead of talking about it.
I guess you don’t fly
Where are the republicans in all of this? Enjoying champagne on Boeing jets?
Didn't know murder got replaced by "blowback" to make it sound better.
Maybe he should give his salary from last year to the victim's families as a show of how much he feels for them.
Aw, he's sorry! 🤬
