The TSA website headlines that their employees are reporting an increase in job satisfaction.
Good to see they aren't hiding their true motivations, and posting worthless stories such as this.
I was aghast last week watching these fools doing the full body search/scan and bomb sniff on an elderly gentleman in a wheelchair. This about a month after these scumbags let a muslim with HOLLOWED OUT shoe soles, with a Koran who lied about having a laptop onboard his flight. Probably holding up the flight an hour to make sure he got on.
I spoke with one of these fools and pointedly addressed this farcical stupidity, telling him he sould be ASHAMED of himself.
I can't help keep being reminded that these morons had no job/future of any consequence that they could/would keep prior to 911. But the TSA was their savior, offering a federal job with all associated securities eliminating any fear of being fired for incompetence or wreckless jeopardizing of the security of others.
Just damn!

That's just horridly stupid and totally unnecessary.

I was almost subjected to a seach last week... but the second time I went thru, my gold bracelets did not set off the alarm.

Praise God for your boldness.

I forget if it was Houston or Phoenix . . . the LAST screener--the one with the wand . . . was ABDULLAH something or other . . . and he had a stealy, dull/fierce sort of "I DARE YOU TO MAKE SOMETHING OF IT" look in his eye. Chilling. What idiocy that such folks would work in such a role or anywhere near such a role. And I understand that their coworkers and supervisors are scared spitless to say anything for fear of losing their jobs etc.

WHAT SHEER IDIOCY!
