They may have intended for me to read the CAPTCHA and look at my eGrid and enter three alpha-numeric characters manually, but if my program does it for me automatically, so be it. If they want to make a rule that requires me to enter it manually, that's another story.

I am also not advising that pilots access VIPS remotely. I am simply stating that The Company's claim that remote access is a problem is a fabrication on their part. It was never a problem before, and when done from secure computers now it should not pose a problem -- except that they're having bandwidth issues.

My bottom line is that we should be pushing back against The Company and not against each other.
