LAS was noteworthy (D gate) as complletely no drama or "advice"-and a through but appropriate pat down. Her jaw dropped though when I commeted "Very professionally done-Thank you"-she recovered-and thanked me-but looked stunned.
Thank you for commenting politely to the TSO that performed the patdown, it is nice to hear positive things being said to our workforce.

Others have commented that this should be your experience everytime you are selected for a patdown, I agree. Every time you enter a checkpoint, you should recieve professional service.

P.S. this made my day, take care!
