If they want it badly enough, let's see the CBA language they propose. Maybe we can bargain. As it stands now, there is no such restriction.
And as it stands now, The Company is using our jealousy to divide us.

I understand your viewpoint TonyC, but the CBA does not say a lot of things and the Company has the right to control access to it's business machines. You are correct that our CBA secures us "access" to the Computers but I see nothing that prevents the Company from making Infosec policies that require you to be a live person and not share or store your password in order to use said machines.
Magic disk and green screen may have worked that way before but that does not mean, IMHO, that the Company can't change their minds. Fact is that IT is way different than those years and I think it is bad advice to imply that there is nothing wrong with remote access to ViPs any longer since they have made a clear statement. To do so now puts those users at risk and we do not need more pilots fired.
