TSA is so stupid
 
I was traveling last week in a black suit & tie, I know its not the official uniform but i was trying to get back to work. The girl working for TSA threw away my after shave. Before she told me I had to throw it away I asked her if I could transfer it to one of the smaller bottles of contact solution I was carrying. She said now, because you can carry any size of contact solution. So I said to her, you mean to tell me I could carry a gallon size bottle of Renu but I cant carry after shave. The bottle she wanted me to throw away was 4oz and not 3.4 or whatever the hell they wanted it to be. This whole 3oz rule is so damn stupid. It doesnt make sense at all. And these Pro's are so serious about that stuff too.

I was also wonder if anyone got the random as a crew member yet. It happen to me twice at the same airport. There is a new order out now where they can do that.

This is why I am always in uniform. Sucks, but oh well.

don't give those fools any respect they don't deserve it. Be as mean as you possibly can without getting in trouble.

That was my problem before I was being too nice. The whole random search is not even random anymore. It's expected for me. I get searched all the time

This is the best one. There are so many people out there that dont even know why the hell they could carry 3.4oz but not 4. It's all in the interest of national security. I dont see how the hell .06oz is gonna make a difference. You cant even find a 3.4oz bottle of anything anywhere. It think this whole thing is a government scam to make americans spend about $7 on stupid ass little bottles of sh!t when they can go to wallmart and buy the same thing in a gallon size for the same price.

That will show em! :rolleyes: I am sure it will get better for all of us if we are all tools to them. NOT! Let's be a little more mature than this.

You think I volunteer to be randomly searched? Flying through some of these hick towns, I guess I did learn a lesson.
