Cooperate

TSgt West and SSgt Freeman cooperate which, according to the Introduction to Negotiating chapter, is useful when a party desires to achieve a mutually satisfying outcome while simultaneously managing the relationship. SSgt Freeman attempts to achieve a mutually satisfying outcome as evidence by the statements, Could you wait until tomorrow? That way I could use the vehicle to support this other requirement (Freemans need) and allows you to use it for the rest of the week (Wests need). West, in-turn, acknowledges the challenge Freeman is facing (supporting West and a high-priority request) and agrees to his offer, which supports not only the tasks at hand but the relationship as well. *##**##*
