Hello fellow pilots,
For TOOL of the day, I would like to nominate my fellow pilots whose lofty perches are so high that they have lost sight, and sympathy for, those they obviously deem as "beneath" them. Of course, I am referring to our fellow pilots that have no sympathy for the plight of our fellow aviation workers, and our fellow Americans, the TSA Agents.
While I have had some bad experiences with certain TSA agents in my time, the overwhelming majority were respectful, if not downright pleasant. I realize that this is not always the case, but when ANY fellow American is faced with the prospect of losing their ability to house and feed their family, they definitely deserve our respect and sympathy.
The fact that I even have to post this is downright sad....

Sorry I consider the tsa a fellow aviation worker as much as I consider the janitor a fellow aviation worker. I’ve got other friends who work in the federal government (park rangers) and it’s just part of the gig. They get great benefits and this comes with the territory. Tsa is one of the biggest jokes of our federal budget.

Can you imagine what would happen if pilots stopped getting paid and people called them worthless and overpaid? Man, you would have to rename this snowflake central.

Can you imagine getting a retirement for life after two years of service? The TSA does.
While this initial amount is a small pension just imagine a small pension from every part time job you ever had.
Not sorry.
