Am I the only one who did a double take and Googled it when Boeing was described as "Chicago-based?" Maybe it's just because my parents grew up in Seattle, but

Am I the only one who did a double take and Googled it when Boeing was described as "Chicago-based?" Maybe it's just because my parents grew up in Seattle, but I'll always associate Boeing with the Northwest.

- 6stringmerc 10y agoYup, I remember when it was a big to-do when they moved HQ to Chicago. Apparently they have a massive production facility in North Carolina that is relatively new. A certain Presidential candidate confused a lot of North Carolina employees by asserting that without change, Boeing was going to take its jobs to China, which, with a modicum of thought, sounds absolutely ridiculous on many IP and QC levels, especially in proximity to such a new facility.
