You also overlook the war on skirts; I have been told by several people now in your agency that there is a directive that either ALL skirts or MOST skirts now require a pat down. That was not the case in past (and granted, it still varies remarkably from airport to airport)

Again, just because things are done a certain way in GSO and HSV doesn't mean that they are done that way in ORD, or SAT, or DEN or any number of other airports. There is far too much inconsistency happening right now and that is one reason why you have lost public trust. Masking poor training and poor leadership under the guise of 'planned inconsitency' is just insulting to your customers.
Not customers but victims.

I can choose to be a customer or not but do not have that option with TSA,
