There are places where their lockers are inside security. They just walk through in their civvies.

I'm all for supporting my union, but the bashing of other unions is so short sighted, it is pathetic.

Someday, union bashing pilots will realize that the enemy is not the other unions, but the management groups of the airlines.

I have to admit that I didn't learn this until I was furloughed from an airline that was at direct odds with an airline represented by another union. There was bad blood between those two groups but that animosity was grossly misplaced. It was the airline management groups that should have been the object of our anger.

After I managed to get hired at airline #3 for my career, I found myself flying with some of those pilots who had been our "arch enemy's" just a year before. Turns out that they were just like me: great guys who were working stiffs just trying to make it to the end of an airline career fraught with trials and troubles.

Unions, all of them, are the networks that hold our employee groups together. Unions are us.

What's actually scary is the fact that TSA lets TSA employees through, with bags, in civilian clothes, by just looking at their badge.
No biometrics, nothing.
