  2. the guy at STL who picked a fight with Steve Bierfeldt;
  3. the screener who was honest testifying in the Fofana case;
  4. the screener who was honest testifying in the McCarty case;
  5. Wanda Weems, who boarded the flight without going through screening;
  6. our favorite punchline: Alvin;
  7. the screener(s) at DFW who missed a loaded handgun and two hunting knives... in the same month;
  8. the TDC who thought 6'2", 200 lb, 14-year-old "Dakota" looked just like his mom "Virginia";
  9. the recent TSA person who skipped screening, causing a flight to have to return/be diverted.
  10. everyone involved at LAX who let BS through with her ice, thereby leading to the lamest PV explanation of all time and making TSA look even stooopider than anyone thought possible;
Depending on the number of the last group, that's something more than 9. At least, these are people who, if working for me, would not get a bonus this year.

I hope the ones caught stealing, drug-running, etc are no longer drawing any salary from TSA. But I'm not confident.
