The hand swabbing station, right behind the ID checkers has been there for awhile, but the first time I saw anyone doing hand swabbing was my last flight out on 2/13. Swabber was actually going down the line BEFORE the ID checker swabbing hands.

Considering the chaos that was reigning that morning, w/only 2 lanes open & NoS' in action (lines into the NoS were upwards of 6-8 each, the swabber & the roving gate check crew would have been much better off doing something useful like opening up another lane.

But, then again, this is the TSA & they've never done anything useful during the course of their entire existence
