But seriously....what type of candidate do you hope to attract when you tempt them with 'xray vision'? Are you looking for mature, seasoned security professionals, competent newbies - or peeping tom clowns who are itching to be authorized to stick their noses and hands into strangers' bags and pants and crotches?

What would your reaction be to an ad for licensed health care professionals that dangled 'xray vision' as a perk of the job?
But Chollie, that's just TSA's attempt to keep thing light-hearted and fun! It's an agency full of joking laughing, smiling, happy people!
