Now if you're talking about EasyBid and their issues, then that's their problem. That's not what I'm frustrated with - it's DL and their antiquated IT. I mean, everytime I'm trying to change my DH seat on a DL computer I have to click through Script errors or something because the computer use such an old version of IE that Delta.bomb doesn't work well with it.

The very fact that we even have to pay for an outside vendor to audit and submit our bids, is ridiculous. There should be so much more functionality in what we can do and how we can do it. I'm talking phone apps. I pay for iCrew Max so that I can have a semi functional phone app that I can track my schedule and look at open time without having to resort to blindness and carpal tunnel inducing phone computing. This tablet we're getting... I know I keep slamming it, it's really not the hardware. It's the fact that I believe (based on years of frustrating experience) that this will be just the latest in a long, long line of tech missteps and disappointments. PeoplePC, Ecrew, having to enter passwords time after time, VPN tunnels, crew notification glitches, give me a break! It's not state secrets here, people! All the q & a on the tablet, it's all "not at this time", or, "planned for the roadmap". A company this size, this far-flung, deserves a world class IT department with a budget to get things done.
