oh my, chris yu nonsense.

Chris Yu from Japan writes about an experience he had with Win-Win in a negotiations class, "It was pointed out that Win-Win is more often being more creative to get to Win-Win-Lose instead of Win-Lose. In other words, let's say that there's only $2 between us and we each want an identical $2 sandwich. Since there's only $2 it appears that one side would win (get the sandwich) and the other would walk away hungry. But if we're 'creative,' one of us might go to the shop, order the $2 sandwich and upon receiving it the other one would run into the store acting like a madman, steal the sandwich and run away. The storekeeper would be dismayed and probably make the person standing there another sandwich. Hence Win (sandwich buyer), Win (sandwich stealer), Lose (sandwich shop). Anyway, I think the whole point was to encourage people to think more about how having more creative possibilities could result in a more optimal agreement but it also illustrates how Win-Win conveniently omits the other parties." So in essence, creativity always wins.

haha! yay!
