Frequent flyers get to skip a lot of what happens with security.

You have a 'real job' and 'important things to do' - so you don't work for TSA.
What exactly does that have to do with TSA checkpoints? Are you suggesting that anyone who has a bad checkpoint experience doesn't have a 'real job'? Or doesn't have 'important things to do'?
???
I am a frequent flyer. What do I get to skip? I am physically incapable of assuming and holding the position necessary for a good scan, so the majority of times that I transit the checkpoint, I am forced to undergo a full-body grope, generally out of sight of my belongings. Unlike you, I am not willing to be confrontational with government agencies (like telling CBP that the photo they just took might not satisfy TSA).
