With the number of people they hire your going to get some good, some bad, and some ugly (bullies, predators etc.). What I don't understand is why it takes getting arrested for a felony for someone to get fired. TSO's screw up, pax sues,suite is settled ( with taxpayer money) no job action is taken. There have been so many examples here of TSO"s being rude and beligerant, no one gets fired. TSO's let guns and box cutters get through, the very nature of their job, they need to be retrained? They weren't paying attention and should have been fired.
