Actually, I saw in the video the woman herself throwing away the items. Kind of hard to then claim the TSO took them. Unless you think the TSO removed the items from the trash can and ate them

SATTSO, I am repeating myself from another thread, but since there's a couple of TSA screeners on board, I'd like to ask you and ORDofcr a question: Do you stick your filthy blue-glove covered hands into someone's cooler and root around? That is gross.
NEW GLOVES, OUTTA THE BOX before you touch people's food or medicines or personal property.
Then later in the tape, you see the same TSA screener with the same pair of blue gloves rubbing them blue gloves over her mouth to cover up her laughter at the pax and the pax grandma in the wheelchair. Maybe NOW might be time to switch blue gloves, because they are definitely gross and contaminated and cover with food and saliva. But them blue gloves stay on to welcome the next pax and the next pax's property.
Also, the food Nadine throws on the floor next to the wastebasket sits there for at least 3 minutes, until the tape ends, exactly where the next pax is supposed to come traipsing through in his or her socks or bare feet and collect the shoes. Wouldn't one of the silly TSA screeners take a moment to get the food off the carpet?
TSA screeners are unsanitary and gross--not you two, I'm sure, but definitely the ones in this video.
No, I change gloves between everyone I screen, and each item I screen. And, yes, I have "rooted" around in someones cooler.
