Boeing to Machinists: 'We're in this together'

Posted at 1:59 pm by Michelle Dunlop

As the Boeing Co. and its Machinists union kicked off round-the-clock contract negotiations today, the aerospace company introduced a new radio ad aimed at union members.

You can listen to BCA president Scott Carson's radio commercial at Boeing's Negotiations Web site. In the radio spot, Carson tells the Machinists, "We're in this together. We can only succeed by working together."

Boeing's Carson made it into this Machinists' blog entry and cartoon on negotiations.

The Machinists had warned members of a media campaign by Boeing on their Negotiations Web site.

The Machinists also put out a new video on their Web site laying out some of the main issues for the contract.
