Workers in the Seattle area and Oregon voted 94.6% against a tentative agreement Boeing and the International Association of Machinists and Aerospace Workers unveiled Sunday.
Stephanie Pope, CEO of Boeing’s commercial airplane unit, told machinists earlier this week the tentative deal was the “best contract we’ve ever presented.”
“In past negotiations, the thinking was we should hold something back so we can ratify the contract on a second vote,” she said. “We talked about that strategy this time, but we deliberately chose a new path.”
I don’t know anything about their contract negotiations, but if someone said this to me during negotiations of any type, my BS detector would be off the charts.
