Okey dokey. I guess the screeners at my local airport are all lying to me.

Most of them are veterans, who’da thunk they would be so dishonest?

There is a clinical name for it, but let's just say it is a the attitude of self-importance for lower-level enforcers. Again, think Barney Fife.

You are confusing receiving clearance to become a TSA screener with the type of "secret clearance" that 10,000 TSA workers will receive in the next two years. (referred to in the last two articles I posted)

Here are the requirements to become a TSA screener. How Do I Become a TSA Screener?You need to have a GED (or a year in a security position - no GED required even), be a US citizen, 18 years of age, pass a background criminal check and credit check, complete training, and be able to perform certain physical requirments.

Those requirements do not add up to secret clearance.
