Good Lord man, can you even find your airplane without help?
It was not the first proposal. It was the first comprehensive proposal. We had been negotiating for nearly two years and if they company had not been dragging it's feet and we had a joint contract ahead of the Nic, then the rest of this would have been history.
What are you talking about "took a lower offer...?" We stayed with what we have because of the absence of a JCBA and the TA.
Quit why you are behind. WD will be along in a minute to explain what you really meant.
