The whole DS2 team does their part to fix a problem and the Government won't take timely appropriate action to fix their own problem. So in turn you keep dealing with their problem, it wastes time ,money , and man power. That money could have been used to update or replace years outdated equipment and save money in the long run. Headaches from fixing the same equipment that you reported up needs replaced.

Wore the same DS2 T-shirts for years and they have holes in them from day to day work and normal wear and tear.
Some company vehicles are in disrepair due to the money required to fix them ,but they sure are clean and shiny inside!
