A reputation is long and hard to earn and so easy to lose. Gaining it back again is almost if not, impossible.
Couldn't agree more on every point, mate. Once the world leader that beat all other before her from WW2 bombers to the venerable 747 Jumbo. Sad really.
@@smeary10 I agree absolutely. This is just another reflection of the whole woke western world and how it's being destroyed from within. I'm bloody angry about it and feel for all the great engineers and project managers within the once-great Boeing who have had their careers and reputations trashed.
Elon is way closer to Clarence Kelly (SR71) than any diversity hire from Boeing. Remember that DEI was a creation of Marxists. These Marxists, via the intervention of Beijing, have infiltrated Corporate and Academic and Governments around the western world. Why did they do this? Look at the wreckage of Boeing!
Boeing did 2 test flights before having manned spaceships, SpaceX had 11. It's nuts that Boeing was even cleared for this in the first place considering there 2nd test had a bunch of problems just like the 1st.
True, but considered at the time Boeing was a soon to be centennial aircraft company, SpaceX was a Silicon Valley start up with crazy ideas about reusability. Boeing was a very safe bet, especially because they and companies they had merged with like McDonell, Douglas, and North American aviation were companies that had built several generations of NASA hardware and spacecraft.
Boeing has become a second rate aerospace company. They cannot even build reliable passenger planes. What hope, a space ship? Boeing employees can only blame themselves for being so slack.
No, no, no my friend. Blame the managerial structure from McDonnell Douglas, wearing Boeing like a skin walker. Most, if not all the good engineers left years ago to work for better companies like Lockheed Martin and Spacex.
Boeing is the most corrupt company in the world, they have the most oldest grandpa engineers in the world, they put safety last, they have the most DEI in the work force. Boeing should be banned from making any more planes. They were good 20 years ago but now they are just corrupt as the cartel
@@av2245 that's what is happening in my company as well(a Fortune 100 tech company). A lot of teams and management positions who are created and they fight each others like politic parties, not a technical debate at all. Those people can spend like 8 hours for meeting but none of them want to spend 1 hour to research and read document before. Most of them claim themself as engineer but it's a shame and the largest bull-shit which I have ever seen. They pretend busy at work by joining a lot of unrelated meetings as much as possible. I saw two co-workers has been worked on a task like 6-months. Actually, those tasks are only 3-4 days when it come to my team. Their manager didn't do anything although I told him about that. I believe Boeing or Twitter has the same shits like that. So, the engineering became a joke. A good engineer can't stand and work with those slack and stupid co-workers.
David Calhoun recently stepped down as CEO. He was replaced by a new guy that is alleged to be more in line with historic Boeing leadership values, though I’m suspicious of anyone AP praises.
Changing the leadership doesn't remove the company policy of DEI. What needs to change is the ineffective employees hiding behind group projects. Their less than ideal fit is hidden as part of a group.
Eight days MINIMUM. That’s something the reporting always seems to get wrong. Eight days was their minimum, more if the mission had proven successful. Of course, it didn’t.
@leewright7623 buddy you have no clue how much of the technology you use everyday was developed or at least influenced by Research done at Nasa. Space research has an insanely high return of investment compared to other fields, it's a shame people like you are so uneducated. Nasa doesn't get nearly enough budget for what they're worth
Boeing just got a huge fine to avoid criminal prosecution for safety violations. Whom are they trying to fool here? You can't have DEI and safety at the same time. You gotta pick one or the other and Boeing chose DEI.
@@paulaswaim8434 Nothing to do with DEI. I work there. It’s bad executive management and a focus on cost. Just squeezing pennies out of everything, missing the big technical things.
You really think Boeing will pay that fine? They will over charge on something else they do for the government so that it will be like the fine never existed. Hell, they were awarded $4.5 Billion for Starliner and ended up charging NASA an additional $1.5 Billion in overages since it was delayed over and over.
That's your problem there lady ! Boeing has too many politicians and not enough competent engineers ! They should be removed from the Governments Vendor list until they finish their homework.
Boeing should spend their energy on improving their technology, instead of hating and talking shit. Their reputation is already bad, and a Boeing employee saying that makes them worse than they already are.
Boeing has become arrogant themselves. Look what has happened, they sat on their laurels reaping in profits year after year, never branching out into anything else. Keeping a literal lock on aerospace engineering. Now an up and comer has things figure out, so Boeing is now butt hurt, literally and figuratively because the competition moved faster, better and quicker. SpaceX isn't the bad guy in this story. SpaceX is the scrappy under dog who got tired of the old guard.
Biggest issue with almost every corporate with over 1000 employees anywhere on the planet. As soon as the focus is distracted and shifts away from core business -
Another reason in leadership. A lot of incompetent managers will prefer keeping a lot of stupid and slack engineers in his hand. So, their position are safer. They don't care about the high quality, better engineering. They care more about their paycheck. Leadership is totally corrupted in many big companies.
It's political decision from beginning. Starliner has a lot of problem from uncrewed mission and pre-launch preparation but NASA may be forced to launch it. With failed uncrewed mission, why was Starliner accepted for crewed mission like that?
He really could put his time into another 50 businesses and solidify his forever reign as the richest man. If he did small planes(even small jets 1-2people like sonnex) all the way up to large jets, he could use all his star link tech to make the largest and most accurate drone company completely destroying dji. He could then use his jet manufacturing tech to build military drones, big and small. When you have that much money you can really do just about anything you'd want, I'm sure he'll have some more businesses it'll be interesting to see what he does though. He could go into cell phone manufacturing... dude could do literally anything

They should be embarrassed for over running the budget and slow rolling testing and still barely getting them to orbit. Private enterprise for the win.
True, but if we put it first, just a couple more times, we’d be hearing interviews and commentary about this incident from Gus Grissom, Christa McAuliffe, and a few others

Boeing is so over, as a company. People don't understand that brand value is as important as the products themselves. Just like a man's name, once your brand is associated with the word "crap", you're done, finito.
Not really. They’ve inked deals to build unmanned aircraft for the Air Force, that contract is worth about 2.6 billion. They’re also manufacturing F 15‘s for Israel with a profit margin, I think around 50 million. They also have a new CEO which is going to buy them time and a grace period to see how he works out.
@@gettotheGate Government contracts can be the result of plain corruption. But Boeing's brand is still tarnished and when your brand is associated with "bad quality", it sticks for a long time in the mind of people.
They should be embarrassed. Between their planes and now this, what a disgrace. This is what decades of corporate takeovers get you, a company ran by bean counters.
I wouldn't want to fly in an airplane (or spacecraft) where they prioritized DEI hiring over your safety ! Everybody knows that everything 'woke' turns to . . . . 💩
Cannot even fetch back two astronauts that are only 250 miles away in 2024 but they claim they went to the moon that's 238 900 miles away more than half a century ago.
Back then, Boeing was run by talented engineers from North America. Now the engineers are from third world countries who don't give a damn if Boeing fails.
Love ELON...2 ppl stuck in space and all Boeing can do is feel embarrassed?? Thank god there is a man such as Elon who has helped in time of need. And not the first time either
In spite of this embarrassment, Boeing senior management remains committed to layoff as many low level employees as it takes to make sure they still get paid.
Out with the old guard, in with the new. Boeing is an old company, still doing things as they where done in 1960. Still operating like a government entity with unlimited time, resources and funds. SpaceX is sharp, and on point, they value time, money, resources. I don't think Boeing will ever compete.
Dude…They’re astronauts. And they’re in space. They are where they’ve trained a good chunk of their life to be. This is like if you were hired for THE dream job, but knew you would only get to work it for a few months in all, and suddenly had a whole extra year of it dropped in your lap. They have food, water, air, designated bunk space, communications with their families under better living conditions that deployed servicemen, meaningful work to do, and like minded people to work with. They’re fine.
What????? Boeing is BLAMING NASA?????!!!!!???? Boeing, own up to your failures. Put on your big boy pants, join the real world and accept responsibility for you products and actions. Blaming someone else is hardly the cure to what ails your issues.
Nothing new here. Boeing blamed pilots for the 737-Max crashes for a long time before it because clear that the fault was with their MCAS system that they DIDN'T TELL THE PILOTS ABOUT!
I agree. Only reasons they're blaming NASA is it makes them look bad and they're trying to avoid responsibility for THEIR OWN mistakes. NASA is the only adult in the room here. They've got a choice between a tested reliable craft vs one that is still experimental and has been experiencing potentially dangerous issues. Not a hard choice.

Goes to show just how far Boeing Executives are willing to personally, put their very lives on the line for their ideals and rigorous standards. Oh, wait…
AND THEY SHOULD BE. It's embarrassing that they've been under several legal issues involving lying about and allowing defective parts to be added to planes, along with ignoring several people telling them they shouldn't be doing it. And now, knowing the issues the starliner had, STILL ran the mission and not only risked these people's lives, but also the possible lives of the ISS because they don't know what they are doing. I hope they go under.
The last thing NASA wanted was to turn to SpaceX, but I give them credit for putting safety ahead of politics. Trust that they were under massive pressure to make the return via Boeing so this tells you how concerned the NASA engineers were. Science over politics was a lesson painfully learned via the lost lives of the shuttle disasters.
SpaceX will get the job done properly, nasa knows who to call to get it done right. I’d say Elon deserves a bit of respect being that his company has had such success wouldn’t you? I’d also say his success and efficiency would make his word on politics more worthy, but na let’s listen to the people on the screen who definitely don’t have a biased political agenda 😉 let’s remember Elon voted Biden in 2020 wonder what changed his mind 🤔
Look up Flight 243 and Flight 811 and what happened when they left Honolulu in 1988 & 1989. Boeing planes have been literally falling apart for almost 40 years and it’s JUST NOW BEING ADDRESSED.
To be fair, Flight 243 was an airline problem (the plane had exceeded the maximum flight numbers by more than 5000 flights and should have been grounded). Flight 811 however, was definitely a design flaw which apparently was too expensive to fix.
@@khosrowzare8301 I was on 811. Fortunately I got off in Honolulu before the exciting part. I was still waiting for the USMC bus to pick me up when the reporters showed up.
@@Azmania3000 I'm also assuming said capsule has to be compatible with the NASA space suits Suni and Butch have with them as the Space X suits are very different and designed for SpaceX modules just as the NASA suits are designed to operate with their chosen modules - in this case Boeing's capsule.
When Boeing moved from Seattle to Chicago, then went WOKE, that was the end of the great, innovative aviation leader Boeing. Now they are complete failures due to being diverse.
@@BlueSpruce2 It is troubling to think the current societal trends have negatively influenced Boeing. Even more troubling is the fact that I am choosing my words carefully so that UA-cam does not silence my comments.
When you're the only game in town, exorbitant demands, delays, and excuses drive revenue. However, when there's real competition, you can't change fast enough and will end up losing. Boeing should have felt humiliated for trying to stop SpaceX from entering the playing field back then. Not now.
Retired Boeing employees from decades ago are embarrassed. They had a zero defects policy that is now a DEI policy. I guess that is nit working out so well.
They forced employees to get vaxed. The result was a loss of key employees. Just like the ferry system that had mandated vax instructions. The ferries are now barely running because the mechanics and key employees left. Blame it all on Inslee and Ferguson.
Boeing practices Diversity, Equity and Incompetence when hiring and it shows.
That's part of the problem because they assign positions that doesn't match the skill of the employee. The actual problem is the management. The reason why SpaceX is dominating space flight rn is because of innovations and willing to take risk. Boeing is leaning on a more traditional approach and stick to what was working. They refuse anyone who actually has an idea to shape a new type of spacecraft. I mean, have you seen the interior of the starliner? It looks like it was built in the 90's.
Same with the whole country, the decline of western world is primaraly due of DEI being pushed to replace meritocracy...

They’re also manufacturing F 15‘s for Israel with a profit margin, I think around 50 million. They also have a new CEO which is going to buy them time and a grace period to see how he works out.
@@gettotheGate Government contracts can be the result of plain corruption.
But Boeing's brand is still tarnished and when your brand is associated with "bad quality", it sticks for a long time in the mind of people.
If it’s Boeing I’m not going
👍
… home.😂
You might be going, but you are not coming back, that's for sure.
In space, nobody can hear you whistleblow.
😂😂😂
Boeing blaming everybody else for their failures. There are no real men left at Boeing and the StarWhiner should be scrapped.
😂😂😂
At this point Boeing is too woke to be a reliable company in this industry.
Safety and Boeing in the same sentence makes no sense as we all know. DEI hires cannot save the astronauts.
I hope they both safe and healthy as concerns with foods supply too. 😌
They can’t find astronauts who aren’t pushing 60? I’m not ageist, I’m 72 myself, but c’mon man!
I feel like they used older astronauts because of the risk involved in this particular flight.
Yup, knees and joints start to hurt and slow people down.
@@petera5560 reaction times slow too.
@@ScottishImmortal ACCKK that’s cold, but hilarious 😂. I guess it’s preferable to crash the old Ford not the new Lambo
Don't you know? 60 is the new 20!😂
They should be embarrassed. Between their planes and now this, what a disgrace. This is what decades of corporate takeovers get you, a company ran by bean counters.
Never A Straight Answer is at it again.
Don't blame NASA for boings uselessness.
Why on earth would your trust Boeing with safety? They can't be trusted in any capacity.
first 10secs: there's your problem
That Boeing crap at the end is such a BS 'PR move' 😂 We thought it would be safe but NASA didn't.
In Elon we trust...
But...but...He's a white man !
The democrats told me that kind is evil and "toxic". Especially the anti-establishement Libertarian ones. 😵💫
I wouldn’t use Boeing if it were a toothbrush
I wouldn't want to fly in an airplane (or spacecraft) where they prioritized DEI hiring over your safety !
Everybody knows that everything 'woke' turns to . . . . 💩
They left in a BMW and they will return in a Lamborghini.
No, no, no,.... Not a Lamborghini, a Tesla.😂😂😂😂
Cannot even fetch back two astronauts that are only 250 miles away in 2024 but they claim they went to the moon that's 238 900 miles away more than half a century ago.
Back then, Boeing was run by talented engineers from North America. Now the engineers are from third world countries who don't give a damn if Boeing fails.
Companies that literally have people’s life’s in their hands should never cut corners for profits! Dumpster Juice, I blame Kamala the Space Cadet.
Stuff Happens..... Go SpaceX.
These machines are EXTREMELY Complex.
And Boeing is nowadays an EXTREMELY bad company.
Love ELON...2 ppl stuck in space and all Boeing can do is feel embarrassed??
Thank god there is a man such as Elon who has helped in time of need. And not the first time either
There you go Boeing...your DEI has made you irrelevant.
Victims of Division, Exclusion and Intolerance hiring.
😂😂😂
Yup saw this coming
Last week, it was stated that Starliner Max was unable to come unmanned. mmmmmm....
No, no, no,.... At Boeing they don’t use the word “unmanned”, it’s “unpersoned”😂😂😂
In spite of this embarrassment, Boeing senior management remains committed to layoff as many low level employees as it takes to make sure they still get paid.
Out with the old guard, in with the new. Boeing is an old company, still doing things as they where done in 1960. Still operating like a government entity with unlimited time, resources and funds. SpaceX is sharp, and on point, they value time, money, resources. I don't think Boeing will ever compete.
UFO tech isn't gonna save Boeing either.
Musk hires engineers, Boeing hires accountants ... Big difference
With Boeing you're not going. But in this case, you're not returning.
I would lose my mind being stuck in space for months on end! Hope they have provisions to keep them alive!
Dude…They’re astronauts. And they’re in space. They are where they’ve trained a good chunk of their life to be. This is like if you were hired for THE dream job, but knew you would only get to work it for a few months in all, and suddenly had a whole extra year of it dropped in your lap.
They have food, water, air, designated bunk space, communications with their families under better living conditions that deployed servicemen, meaningful work to do, and like minded people to work with.
They’re fine.
We need the best qualified
Boeing didn't use to be like this!!! This was a complete failure!
It is lucky the two astronauts even made it to the ISS!!!
What????? Boeing is BLAMING NASA?????!!!!!???? Boeing, own up to your failures. Put on your big boy pants, join the real world and accept responsibility for you products and actions. Blaming someone else is hardly the cure to what ails your issues.
Nothing new here. Boeing blamed pilots for the 737-Max crashes for a long time before it because clear that the fault was with their MCAS system that they DIDN'T TELL THE PILOTS ABOUT!
I agree. Only reasons they're blaming NASA is it makes them look bad and they're trying to avoid responsibility for THEIR OWN mistakes.
NASA is the only adult in the room here. They've got a choice between a tested reliable craft vs one that is still experimental and has been experiencing potentially dangerous issues. Not a hard choice.
@@johnnyboy8498 Then the adult should have known better than to send its own astronauts don't you think?
How dare you tell a diverse and equitable company to take accountability for their actions! What are you a racist transphobe bigot?
“Our core value is safety” 😆😆😆🤡 From the spokesman for the agency that knowingly killed two shuttle crews.
Boeing should not be rewarded with any contracts.
I wonder who boeing is going to assassinate over this?
Oh, I am sure it will be an "obvious" suicide like shot themselves in head ten times or such.
Basically shaming the Einstein of our time. And yet asking for his help! 😂😂😂
there should be an federal inquiry into all the whistleblower deaths of boeing employees
Boeing is becoming a joke & a brand that’s is becoming exceedingly unsafe to use….
Those poor astronauts . What an absolute disgrace . 🌎
Dude…They’re astronauts. And they’re in space. They are where they’ve trained a good chunk of their life to be. This is like if you were hired for THE dream job, but knew you would only get to work it for a few months in all, and suddenly had a whole extra year of it dropped in your lap.

They’re fine.
True they will have food and water thanks to Musk and SpaceX Dude.
The current VP is in charge of Space programs but she have never mentioned anything about these astronauts being stranded but she wants a promotion.
I think I remember a few years back that Boeing made fun of Musk and his aspirations........
Goes to show just how far Boeing Executives are willing to personally, put their very lives on the line for their ideals and rigorous standards.
Oh, wait…
AND THEY SHOULD BE. It's embarrassing that they've been under several legal issues involving lying about and allowing defective parts to be added to planes, along with ignoring several people telling them they shouldn't be doing it. And now, knowing the issues the starliner had, STILL ran the mission and not only risked these people's lives, but also the possible lives of the ISS because they don't know what they are doing. I hope they go under.
At the projection that they're heading, they'll be doing just that.
No one gets hired or promoted at boeing because of skill and competence
I’m sure if I had green and pink hair, face piercing and identified as a raccoon I’d be hired in a flash and made a Subject Matter Expert.
This is what happens when people with high credentials are overlooked for DEI hiring.
This is what happens when you prioritise Safe Spaces ahead of competence.
That’s funny about the Boeing employee saying they put shit on space x all the time. The jealousy must be huge over there getting beaten all the time.
I would be embarrassed and ashamed if I had to say I worked for Boeing.
Maybe it’s better not to hate space x and just get your astronauts home
No, no, no,... Let they hate and talk s-t about SpaceX and let they bring their own astronauts back in their own rusted tin can.
NASA hired SpaceX cos you Boeing, have already shown your incompetency
The last thing NASA wanted was to turn to SpaceX, but I give them credit for putting safety ahead of politics. Trust that they were under massive pressure to make the return via Boeing so this tells you how concerned the NASA engineers were. Science over politics was a lesson painfully learned via the lost lives of the shuttle disasters.
If I had the power and authority I would force them to come back in their own craft. 😂😂😂
SpaceX will get the job done properly, nasa knows who to call to get it done right. I’d say Elon deserves a bit of respect being that his company has had such success wouldn’t you? I’d also say his success and efficiency would make his word on politics more worthy, but na let’s listen to the people on the screen who definitely don’t have a biased political agenda 😉 let’s remember Elon voted Biden in 2020 wonder what changed his mind 🤔
Stop DEI and hire qualified people….
Ever since the 737MAX disasters I've refused to fly on Boeing aircraft, even if it means I have to pay more.
A company is only as good as its employees. If the work force is inferior to that of prior generations, the company is in trouble.
I'll never step foot on a boeing airplane ever again, that company is a complete shit show.
Boeing! You had 1 job
Boeing should look to their C-suite for blame; they have changed the Boeing culture over the past 15 to 20 years.
Look up Flight 243 and Flight 811 and what happened when they left Honolulu in 1988 & 1989.
Boeing planes have been literally falling apart for almost 40 years and it’s JUST NOW BEING ADDRESSED.
To be fair, Flight 243 was an airline problem (the plane had exceeded the maximum flight numbers by more than 5000 flights and should have been grounded). Flight 811 however, was definitely a design flaw which apparently was too expensive to fix.
@@khosrowzare8301 I was on 811. Fortunately I got off in Honolulu before the exciting part.
I was still waiting for the USMC bus to pick me up when the reporters showed up.
I don't understand why SpaceX can't get there a lot sooner.
They're going to have to build a compatible system that can dock with the ISS and return the astronauts.
@@Azmania3000 I'm also assuming said capsule has to be compatible with the NASA space suits Suni and Butch have with them as the Space X suits are very different and designed for SpaceX modules just as the NASA suits are designed to operate with their chosen modules - in this case Boeing's capsule.
Each mission is unique, and they have a lot to go over before each launch.
@@Azmania3000 They already have that. They have done it several times already.
@@smeary10 wow didn't even think of that!
When Boeing moved from Seattle to Chicago, then went WOKE, that was the end of the great, innovative aviation leader Boeing. Now they are complete failures due to being diverse.
Agreed 👍
Not sure what has gone wrong with Boeing, but it is fair to say their once impressive reputation now lays in tatters.
Oh, there's plenty wrong with Boeing and we know what it is and the genesis for it.
@@BlueSpruce2 It is troubling to think the current societal trends have negatively influenced Boeing. Even more troubling is the fact that I am choosing my words carefully so that UA-cam does not silence my comments.
@@stoneymcneal2458 We can be sure the Google police censorship bots are on patrol.
What another embarrassment by current government
When you're the only game in town, exorbitant demands, delays, and excuses drive revenue. However, when there's real competition, you can't change fast enough and will end up losing. Boeing should have felt humiliated for trying to stop SpaceX from entering the playing field back then. Not now.
They obviously knew they will get humiliated.
Y don’t Boeing ask the current administration for help?
Who, the Potato? C’on man.😂😂😂
How fitting. Once the industry leader but corrupted by DEI, Boeing has to watch the new kids, free of the DEI curse, save the day.
"revealed" it could bring them home safely? How about claimed?
Retired Boeing employees from decades ago are embarrassed. They had a zero defects policy that is now a DEI policy. I guess that is nit working out so well.
Boeing should deeply appreciate Indian made components for making its dreams come true. 😅😅😅.
Made in India with alot of curry in a hurry 😂😂😂
They forced employees to get vaxed. The result was a loss of key employees. Just like the ferry system that had mandated vax instructions. The ferries are now barely running because the mechanics and key employees left. Blame it all on Inslee and Ferguson.
