I've seen the same thing many times.

TSA= Thousands Standing Around.


They out number the Airline employees! They're also behind the seens too! Down in the bag rooms.

I flew from RDU to MDW two weeks ago. They had two women checking ID's in line. The one said to the other, "start checking from here (this individual). I move along to the second woman and she says to the guy behind me, "have you been checked?" "Um, yeah". I busted out laughing. I would've said something if I had thought it might make a difference.

Now the TSA wants to charge me? For what? Getting the privilege of them actually performing their appointed tasks competently? Please.

Just another reason to drive.

Many TSA agents also need to readjust their attitudes. Most of them are sour and barks orders at passengers. Even to us flight crews they are rude. I saw one TSA barking orders at an old lady traveling by herself. I told him he needs to cool it and develop some customer service attitude.

It’s a disgrace that these uneducated Neanderthals dressed in uniform have the audacity to treat flight crews as the enemy! They remind me of the army in Planet of the Apes… mindless followers of the order without any self esteem or ability to think.
