We have been taken to the cleaners in the past. That quote "he who fails to learn from the past is doomed to repeat it" couldn't be more true and is presently staring you squarely in the face. Rather than learning you continue your quest to trust and not verify. Your hopeless LL!
It's "you're hopeless!" Sorry, couldn't resist. I didn't want T to have to come out of retirement and lose his bet.
I'm not on a quest. I do have a hard time understanding those that continue to dwell on the past, even though it has no bearing on our future path. You make it sound like we shouldn't bother negotiating any future agreements because our bozo lawyers aren't any good anyways . . . If that's the case then why have a contract at all?
I happen to see this as a good deal from a Scope perspective. It's an average deal in most of the other categories. If you refuse to even consider what your own team is telling you, then who would you listen to? Just because mistakes have been made in the past does not mean that every future decision made by an organization is flawed.
Are we going to merge with RAH or were you just lashing out??
