You made a general off the cuff statement. Now defend it properly.
What's stopping ME from asking YOU to see your boarding pass?
I really don't get the off the cuff statement you are referring to, and don't really care to argue about it.
You believe they serve no purpose at all and want to waste your time, and that of everybody behind you arguing with them.
Whoever employees them, be it the airport or the airline (you don't think they just show up as volunteers?) feels they have a purpose and has given them that job.
I prefer to show them my pass and be on my way.
You prefer to hold up the line for everybody.
I really don't care why they are there (though I do know why they are there). They were hired to do a job and are just following their job duties. If you take the same attitude with them you do with me here, I can fully understand why you feel hassled all the time.
