They did that.

They did NOT do that. In fact, they took the bag out of my sight thus
the reason for me jumping to conclusion they swiped my reading glasses.


It would be really nice if TSA were consistent.

If the lack of consistency is meant to mix things up such that
patterns are not established I'm fine with that; however, the
search of my bag needs to be conducted in front of me not
out of my sight where potentially someone, for example, could
slip a little bag of white powder in my bag and I suffer the
consequences of that "find".
