nolan and director reiskin. i'm not here representing sfmta about 2 months ago director ramos suggested that i read the bart report and recommendations. it recommended that a strategy mechanism be set by both parties as well as checkpoints to keep the board updated on on full details of the collective bargaining process and there was and probably always will be a culture of management as the enemy and management doesn't look out for neighbors best interest this culture may exist here at the sfmta i know we can change some of these perceptions one item that will be discussed in the negotiation process is wage progression for new hires as i mentioned before -- i feel one way to improve labor and management relations is wage progression for new hires after 19 months after training. remember today's new hires are the new leaders of tomorrow we must begin trust building. thank you. >> thank you. >> good afternoon sir. >> good afternoon. i'm a long time taxi driver and also board member of san san francisco taxi worker's a alliance i need to know why you guys are not helping us after selling 250 $250,000 medallions why
