If you are referring to Jason Barons comment, then you are taking it out of context. His comment was used not to delay negotiations but to influence your side to quit demanding the 747 get a higher pay scale, so we could move forward. Just because we disagreed with your position, does not mean stalling occurred as to drag out negotiations. You guys wanted your plane to pay higher, we did not, and a nasty battle ensued. This comment probably speed things up as it conveyed to your side that we were not going to relinquish on the point. If Jason wanted to stall negotiations he could have voted not to approve this contract at the MEC level. If Pierce wanted to delay this contract we would still not have one. Maybe you should have talked to your side and told them to agree with Jason sooner.
