[–] option_greek 7y ago ↗ If $9 per hour is the problem, may be going with $500 per hour lawyers would be better ?Price is not always a good proxy for quality. [–] iscrewyou 7y ago ↗ It doesn’t bode well for Boeing if this is the case though. Many reports show them trying to cut corners. Hiring $9/hour engineers can’t be good for them. Not saying these engineers aren’t good. But there’s a reason they are getting paid that low.
