Forced card system sucks (Access Control)

You guys are moving backwards regarding your new card system. After telling this to the branch manager, they explained why – but reasons are stupid and herewith my counter argument:

(1) “to monitor how long people are in the gym” - Then simply use the palm reading (biometrics) for exiting as well (in conjunction with the card reader). (2) “to monitor what challenges people are doing” - then simply use biometrics there as well. (3) “some people with bad fingerprints having trouble getting in” - Then simply use a dual entry/logging system so that whoever wants to use the palm reader can do so, anyone else who prefers the card have that option too. (4) “buy the wristband” – No thanks. One more thing I need to buy, remember to bring every time, and stuck on my arm for an hour when I’m a kind of person that don’t even wear a watch. (5) “the card stores your track record” – bull****, the card is access control, the track record is a database kept on a server.

IN CONCLUSION: I hate the fact that I have to haul cards and stuff around. It’s one of the main reasons I’ve chosen Viva and quite possibly the reason for leaving Viva if it’s not rectified.
