Waah! The pilot that had a discharge on the flt deck(no pun), the pilot that emptied his ammunition in the toilet in flight.

Yesterday morning we had an early show time in IAH. Only one person was ahead of us in line at KCM and it was a FA arguing with the TSA agent about how they should let her boyfriend go through this line just this once because the regular security line is so long and he'll miss his flight. She was dumbfounded and got all ****y eyed when the agent told her no.
Yeah... I know it's tough to be a newbie.

I cringe when captains allow the flight attendants to set the tone. I will support them and enjoy working with most but when push comes to shove the buck stops in the flight deck not the galley. If you want flight attendants to like and respect you then if they have a problem get all the information and make a decision the same as if you were in their shoes. Take an interest in who they are as people and keep them safe.
I disagree that it will be a flight attendant or pilot that ruins KCM. It will be an idiot. And the example stated was an idiot.

So you're defending her behavior?

The crewmwmber has every right to submit a letter of complaint to the TSA with copies to the Airline. Likewise the TSA agent has the right to submit a letter of complaint to his/her supervisor against the F/A as well.
At the end of The day, I will wager the issue took no more than 3 minutes the resolve. Unfortunately F/As and cockpit crews are not exempt from inappropriate conduct... but again their are remedies to the bone heads.

Captain I flew with today who said, "I just don't understand why guys continue to go to Spirit when places like United and AA are hiring. They are desperate for pilots. That's just stupid."
After ten minutes of discussion and bringing up many obvious points, he just said, "Whatever, I'm not in the job market, but those guys are stupid."
Yet another prime example of ignorance and this bewildering attidude that if legacies are hiring you can just waltz yourself right on in the front door...
