Get pat Down/wanded. In Uniform. Tell smurf why I beep. I was like maybe 3 months post surgery.
Asked if there was any sensitive or sore spots. I told him left shoulder, right knee, left hip, left foot.
Guess where he GRABBED hard? yeah. The shoulder I just had rebuilt.
I then get a supervisor, a witness and a cop and am asked to come to a side room because I beep everywhere.
Papa Smurf says their sensors ignore "medical metal" and I must divulge what I'm hiding. Cop basically facepalms over the stupidity.
I show that Pic and more graphic ones of my shoulder reconstruction. Like plainly showing whats under the skin.
I have scars that correspond with areas that trip the wand. Except my face. Because the plastic surgeon at Walter Reed was pretty damn good.
"That could be removed and used as a weapon. You are denied access to the secure secure area until you get it removed"
Call duty pilot. Tell him what's up. "Lemne gues. Ft Lauderdale"
Total time from kcm to walking out door 2 hours.
holy cow, i am a lazy ass person. Maybe 2 yelp reviews in my whole life…..i would definitely follow up those shenanigans with appropriate channels to get an accounting. I have a replaced hip and it beeps all the time
