I wrote about this in another post but it's so slanted in Boeing's favour that near every outlet is reporting this as a 25% increase.

It's not effective right now - it's scaled over the next four years. This means it won't cover the rising cost of everything and it's peanuts compared to what the company could afford.

Honestly I wish one of these large unions would go all the way and get a salary that these workers actually deserve. We see these situations happen too often where the employer is obviously in the wrong, yet they have the capital - financially and otherwise - to stonewall the union and wait until they relent as the coffers run low.

The response from workers should be "25%? That easily? You should have given us that raise a few years ago. We are still behind. Do better."

"Here's half of what you ingrates asked for, now get back to work"
