You actually had time to be proactive and talk about, what’s coming up next. What are we doing later? The strategic part of it is huge. We’re doing a much better job of sharing forecasts with suppliers now, talking about that ahead of time. They’re prepared, we’re prepared, they’re able to pull in easier because they have all their materials and or labor. And the truth is there’s more time for a little chitchat too to build those relationships. And and I think one of the really important things is just remembering that real people are on the other side, just trying to do a good job. And this is a tool that helps them.
