Work/Life balance🍎 Clipping your nails at work?

88 Upvotes

Am I missing out on a chargeline we can use for this? If not, why are you hunching over a trash can at work clipping your nails loudly like a freak?

Give a damn!

Pilot here. Flying a brand new MAX 8 and it’s got a bunch of connectors shoved down the F/O window which I haven’t seen before. No one at my company seems to know anything.

Are these supposed to be tucked away somewhere? Seems sloppy to me.

Is the San Diego office a satellite office?

3 Upvotes

I recently applied to a role that is based in San Diego and I think I am a really good fit for this role but I wasn’t aware that Boeing had a presence in San Diego.

Is this a satellite office? It is an engineering role but I only thought manufacturing may be down here.

If it is, how do satellite offices work within Boeing?

Defense What is subsystem engineer?

2 Upvotes

Fairly recent grad. New to Boeing.

I hear people bring up “talk to subsystems” for when I need to find things like docs and stuff. But what do they do exactly? The one I talk to doesn’t seem to write requirements and that’s a different “System Engineer” apparently? All the testing itself is being done by other test engineers too. So what does the subsystem guy do?

0 Upvotes

Hey guys! My husband works in finance and has a mechanical engineering degree. He has no engineer experience and is wanting to transfer to an entry level engineer position in PNW. He’s been talking with his manager and in communication with engineers in our location to see if they have any connections or anything he can help with/ shadow. Anyone have any other suggestions for us to move/ him to switch to engineering?

Commercial Why does the Boeing 737 max 7 need more runaway to land than the Boeing 737 max 8?

0 Upvotes

I like the design of the 737 max 7 more than the 737 max 8, but why does the 737 max 7 need more runway than the max 8 even though the max 7 is shorter than the max 8.
