once the oracle debacle gets solved it will be a big step forward particularly in the staff travel dept...had a chat with the big boss of staff travel while he was fixing my leave ticket problem..he and one other are sequestered in a room full of computers trying to get the system all in place...and he outlined services soon to be available online from home...visits to staff travel will be a thing of the past...and yes some security issues with the oracle system have indeed made it unaccessable from anywhere other than the puzzle palace...but hey...auh base closes soon right?
