1. There are so many IDs, we can't be expected to know them all (much less accept them).
2. Don't you have a Drivers License? Everyone has a Drivers License.
3. We are a young agency. These things take time. So, until we all know what a NEXUS card is, you need to produce something else, like a Passport Card.
4. Sorry, we don't accept the NEXUS card.
5. Sorry, we don't accept the Passport Card.
6. They haven't started that program yet.
7. Don't you have a Passport? Everyone has a Passport.
8. The TSA website is out of date.
9. The SOP is out of date.
10. We're going to have to give you a secondary and search your bag.
1, 2, 3, 8, 9 and 10 on this encounter with three different folks. although I will give a break on 10 as my carry on gets opened up and swabbed about half the time. I had the printout from the web site with Nexus highlighted and handed it to the first TDC and you would have thought I had handed him a live rattlesnake from the way he threw it down.
I had to stand to the side and wait, twice. It was interesting as folks, 25 or so, went through past me and had that "I wonder what he did?" look as they got their DL's approved.
This is getting old but it is sort of fun if I have time.
The back rub was just weird.
I will ask for new gloves the next time.
