    It will be a shame if they take this. They should have gotten the 40% they were demanding. Unfortunately, I understand the desire of the union to not press its resources.

      They should have had 1 demand:

      All McD executives must resign immediately without bonuses or severerance compensation of any kind.

      Without this condition, Boeing has 0 chance to survive.

        Boeing effectively is the US military, so it’s in zero danger of going out of business, no matter how incompetently it’s run.
