Now go through a LEO background and that will make your head spin. And they have to do a psych interview to boot(maybe something the airlines should consider, albe they won't).
Ha, when my department hires a recruit class of 50, they have 5,000+ applicants to pick from. They can afford to do MMPI's (psych evals) and the polygraph. That $hit doesn't work, I know completely normal people who have answered honestly and gotten the boot, while completely whackos have lied and passed the thing just fine.

I would hope the airlines never do this crap.

Example Questions: (yes or no)

I hate my mother

Flowers make me happy sometimes

Much of the time my head seems to hurt all over

I have often wished I were a girl. (Or if you are a girl) I have never been sorry that I am a girl

Everything is turning out just like the prophets of the Bible said it would

I hardly ever feel pain in the back of the neck

I have a cough most of the time

If people had not had it in for me I would have been much more successful

I used to like drop-the-handkerchief

I have had no difficulty in starting or holding my bowel movement


.....just an example of some.
