Sorry the world is too woke for you, snowflake. Glad you’ve created a safe space for yourself from the big, bad anti-racist folks out there. I know it’s hard.

Have fun trusting your life to diversity rather than actual competency.

+1. Sorry but I’m not sacrificing my life on the altar of the United CEO’s quest for diversity in the workplace.

Please, it's the MBAs cutting cost to the bone. They get into companies founded by engineers and ruin them.

While I completely agree with you that engineers should be running these companies, as opposed to accountants, the United CEO diversity hire initiatives are a separate matter. And equally serious IMO.

Should I cancel my Boeing flight that's in a week? It's not on the Max.

No, but I can't remember the last time I was in one. In the past few years it's only been Airbus for me.

Okay, that caused a literal spit take, as I was drinking coffee when I read the bolded. Thanks for the laugh.

No, I'm not sending my kid on a planned trip to Gma on one of their planes. No no no

It’s actually not hard at all. United announces new “standards” in pilot hiring. I don’t fly them anymore. What could be simpler?

We’re just teasing your for your choices.
We also don’t care

Yes, absolutely. But also make sure that you don't drive (or walk) anywhere for the next few months as well. Those "self-driving" Teslas are out of control!

I consciously do not fly United or the Max anymore, but other than that, no issues for me.

Cool, so you never ride in a car either, right? Also never swim?

[Anonymous]

You don't hear about the tens of thousands of Boeing planes that make flights every day without any issues.

We’re traveling on JetBlue this spring so that we could fly on an Airbus. I just heard about a website (kayak) that lets you filter out Boeing planes, so I’ll use that next time to find flights. I was initially avoiding the 737 max, but now I think we’ll avoid Boeing planes entirely if possible.

So yes, i trust Boeing as much as I trust my car and the other cars on the road.

+1

It is what it is...

Boeing might cancel your flight if more $hit continues hitting the fan.
