Exactly. We were going to get the B tream initially whether we started 4 years ago, 2 years ago, or now. It takes 5 years to get a contract out of these people. If we would’ve started 4 years ago, we’d be almost there today.
Honest question for the old heads: When in the history of the IPA have we ever negotiated (or not negotiated) based on what another labor group was doing?
