Default TSA Testing Your Drinks At The Gate

TSA liquid testing inside terminal at Columbus OH Airport - YouTube

I hope that TSA agent changed her blue gloves and those are not the same ones she used when she patted down the sweaty man's crotch a hour ago.

If someone tested my drink like that, I would throw the drink out before I take another sip.

TSA, penquins and lawyers. Making beer taste better since 1906.

It's the gubment jobs creation program. Of the 300,000 jobs created since Obama took office, 3/4 are low paying menial jobs. Lovely.

Um, isn't that usually the spread for any industry and business? In what business do the managers earn as much as the lower level employees? If 3/4th are menial paying, capitalists should be rejoicing, right?

Just to buck the trend, I got hired recently into a gov job where there has been a lot of hiring recently(to deal with the enormous workload and retirements), unlike your example, these all pay fairly well and you are treated like a human being.

I would have just set my drink on the floor and ran away. They would have to make a choice; protect the suspect beverage or give chase to the guy 10 gates away.

They can have my damn coffee. That is a small price to pay for my dignity. F%$&*^*!

If it was me.......I would've chugged what I was drinking, handed them the empty cup, and walked away. Frickin' TSA.

So, from now on when I'm in CMH, I need to walk around with a bottle of my "special" warm lemonade. Got it:-)
