Perfection 😘

At some point, some businesses need to realize that a perpetual increase on investment is unsustainable and eventually a steady profit should be the expectation. 

There’s a well-written article in “The Atlantic” about Boeing.  Worth reading if you are interested.  Not sure if it is paywalled or not.

With all the shortcuts Boeing has taken over the years but maybe no one has noticed that Dave Calhoun is leaving the company with nearly $50 million dollars in his pocket.
There was no shortcut there!

CNN —  Federal authorities say they’re investigating Boeing after a whistleblower repeatedly raised concerns with two widebody jet models, and claimed the company retaliated against him.
Whistleblower Sam Salehpour, a Boeing engineer, alleges that Boeing took shortcuts when manufacturing its 777 and 787 Dreamliner jets, and that the risks could become catastrophic as the airplanes age. The New York Times was first to report the whistleblower complaint.
 
Wonder how long this whistleblower will be alive?
