thanks Jerk! I work in the Airline business and trust me, we hate it just as much as anyone else, but my livelihood for my family depends on this. Can i live at your house when you make me lose my job?
Let me get this straight. You hate this as much as anyone but you will blame the people that are trying to get rid of it if you lose your job.
Until YOU people in the industry rise up and stop it, I feel absolutely no pity for you.
Stopped flying myself in June, 2002. Used to spend around 3-5 thousand a year flying. That’s 30,000 to 50,000 thousand you haven’t gotten from me alone because of this crap.
If you had true patriotic blood, you’d QUIT and get a non gummint job.
Nuff said.
So the hell with all of our 4th amendment rights just so you dont lose your job?Your job wont mean sh!t when all your freedoms are gone.When do you want to make a stand?Think about that, will ya?
First, you can see their point right? We are coming close to an outright police state. You as an individual are important to us. We would hate to see you suffer. You as a pawn are just that if it means ending the TSA and reversing the police state. It isn’t personal.
That said, I’ve read down the thread and some people are just being jackasses by insulting you and telling you to quit your job out of principal. Yes, this during the only US economic depression since 1939. As if you don’t have mouths to feed at home. If you have a job today, you would be a moron to walk away from any job security you have.
You are just a pawn. It is not like you are the one causing TSA to strip search Grandma Smith and baby Jones.
I’m assuming you are not a TSA employee in your airline related job. If you are, then I would have nothing but severe condemnation for you and your job. Assuming you are a baggage handler or flight crew or counter crew, I think your detractors here are being embarrassingly immature to tell you to quit your job in depression. They are flat nuts.
I forgot to add, you are in the cross hairs, however. I would encourage people to boycott airlines and not fly so they take high enough losses to join us in the fight against the TSA. If that were to happen, you might be out of a job temporarily, which is why I called you a pawn. That would suck but it would be worth it to many of us here if it achieved scaling back the TSA and the police state. It’s not personal. It is just that you have the bad luck of being directly in the cross hairs right now.
Good luck. I hope you don’t lose your job, but I hope the airlines do suffer horrific losses long enough to band together against the Federal government and demand TSA be removed and they go back to their own private screening procedures.
No offense intended. You are just a pawn.
We have to reverse the police state or what your great grandkids will be subjected to in the future will make your losing a job in an economic depression look like child’s play. They are REALLY going to suffer if we keep down this path. They will lose most of their freedom, have work ceaselessly to pay for the huge number of non-working bums and welfare queens, and on top of that, they could wind up in jail for any reason, or being physically hurt by the government.
If we don’t turn this police state nonsense around, your great grandchildren will suffer in ways you can’t even begin to imagine or stomach.
No reason for the ‘Jerk’ comment. At All.
You work there? Fine. Play your part then in the further destruction of this country. You have a problem with pushing back againsr FedGov, just because it might inconvenience you?
