FFDO denial
Hey guys,
Got an email from the FFDO people saying I was not selected for the program after the TSA reviewed my application.
The application process and everything seemed completely disorganized and a complete hassle, so I am not too disappointed.
However, I cannot figure out why the TSA would deny me. As far as I know, my record is squeaky clean.
Any experience on these denials and ideas why? Maybe complete disdain of the TSA and everything they do?

This thread should be locked as I doubt the 15 year old in a suicide bomber camp reading these non-secure/public forums has the need to know.

Never understood why any regional pilot would want to be a FFDO. Automatic rolleyes from me when the CA says "I'm armed!" Great we have captain america over here to save the day.

I mean, seriously, you ARE joking, right?

They are most likely bombarded with applications and are being very selective. Could be anything. I wouldn't take it to mean you have skeletons in your closet. You may have been in a review that had prior law enforcement and military backgrounds. If it is that important to you I'm sure you can reapply unless your email told you otherwise.

The app was from almost a year ago, so a lot of info on it was old. I think one of my reference's phone numbers changed and I moved as well. Maybe that was it...
Oh well, thanks for the reply.

Could possibly be just that they have enough apps. That being said, the number one reason for denial of a Confidential or Secret clearance is spotty or bad credit.

Anyone with no prior military or law enforcement experience should automatically be rejected in my opinion. Too many needle d!cks signing up for a badge and a gun for the wrong reasons.
For what its worth, most of the FFDO's I know should never have been accepted into the program, and those that should were denied.

And any spy worth a damn is going to have sterling credit, why get tripped up by that? smh -teh stoopid, it burns-
+1 for they probably have enough apps. No shortage of folks who want to prove Quien Es Mas Macho with a pistole. None at all.
