Soooo. I'm on the last legs of an itinerary which has taken me from:

SXM-PHL-SFO-KIX-SIN-AKL-NAN-AKL-SIN-DPS-YOG-CGK-CTS-PEK-TPE-ICN-PVG-EWR-SXM

Anyway, I just saw the most outrageous thing I've seen yet... the Shanghai bag screening agent was asleep at his monitor, I kid you not:



I don't mean he was half-awake. He was completely asleep. Those eyes were closed tighter than a plane's door during flight. I tried to take more photos, but didn't want the other agents to harass me.

I walked by two more times looking for a duty free shop. The first he was still asleep. The second they moved him to a nearby chair, where he continued his nap.

Is this real life?
