Edit to add, not going to get in the employee screening argument , we will just have to agree to disagree.
Our people are tougher.
Ok, we both agree that ramp workers and such must have fluids to stay alive during the summer heat. I don't argue that point. The point I argue is if the employees multiple 3 liter bottles of beverage are safe enough to enter without screening then so should mine be. If liquid explosives are a real threat then treat all liquids as a real threat. What TSA is allowing exceeds all meanings of the word STUPID!
Tell me why a ramp worker would need a rolling suitcase to take to work in a terminal? Perhaps to just make it easier to pilfer from cheched luggaged and sneak it out at night?
Edit to add: Soda Pop is not the best choice to hydrate oneself. Plain old water would be better and I bet their are faucets on the ramp somewhere.
Not to argue but employees should be screened, otherwise no security is in place.
