You seem to do a lot of speculating and judging. How do you know the van driver was smiling when he reported the pilot and how do you know all TSA workers dream of catching a drunk pilot?

That kind of prejudice is the same kind that makes people think we make a ton of money doing nothing, drinking all the time, and just complaining for the sake of complaining.

I say kudos to the van driver. Not only did he prevent a major comprise to safety, but he also saved the other pilot from having to explain how he let the flight takeoff without noticing his coworker was drunk.
