Yep - that's sounds like one of those "I need this done immediately and I can't wait until the next time I'm at work!" scenarios.

Side note - I have IE11 and the Green Screen works just fine for me.

How about "PERMANENT ADDRESS" update ... I've heard of Flight Ops employees threatened with discipline for not having their current address in PRISM!*?

A better question would be, why in 2014 are we still talking about a "green screen" to do anything, much less where we can use it.

Because it is so low tech and outdated, hackers wouldn't even consider looking into those files.

Another example that doesn't meet the "............ We are being expected to comply with company policy and procedures yet they don't give us a decent and workable avenue to accomplish this ..........." urgency the OP is making an issue of.

Do you mean we shouldn't be hanging around the crew lounge on our off days, waiting on a draft call?
