"Prove it" came the challenge and they broke the meeting for lunch. In the afternoon session my pal continued his presentation and presented printed first class tickets to every manager present for a round trip to JFK the cost deducted from each and evey managers company credit card. He then went on to show them that the bookings were already in the CX system and there was absolutely no record of who/when or how the bookings were made.

He didn't get the contract.

so it is note "fate" and mismanagement but gross negligence; interesting
