CEOs have cliques now. When we replace one a new fleet of fucking VPs come with them. They don't fire all of the old ones, either.

It's maddening. You still in aerospace?

Yup, they're all still run by freaking bean counters, even if they were previously engineers. Despite all of the issues, yeah, I'm still in the industry, I really do love the puzzle that is aerospace and hardware.

Bruh. On the blue side, I wish we'd met one another at work.

It's fucking drastic. Low cost and cheap aren't the fucking same.

Yeah, I fought the good fight, even yelled at an executive when I was there, but eventually I left after they got rid of the pension and took the advice I offered the college grads I trained and jumped ship.

Fuck yeah. It's not worth it. I love our engineers/designers but they've picked up so much. Why stay?
