Testing a joke with screeners

Article in the Chicago Tribune today from their sister publication in New York - Newsday which talks about supervisors giving away the answers to the testing on the new bomb detection units for those well trained TSA employees. Four different test takers decided to tell a newspaper reporter of their story.

You can find the article online at www.chicagotribune.com and probably on the Newsday site.

As I traveler that jumps through all the new hoops I'm glad to see that we have once again fooled the public into thinking they are safe due to the increased cost and hassle that we go through when you enter the airport.

As long as screeners make more money than pilots it just goes to show that you don't have to work hard in life to get a high paying job.

Thank you to all the congresspeople that passed these silly laws and rules thinking that they are saving America. Thank you to the procters of the tests who think they are doing somebody a favor.

Here is hoping you don't get caught in a terminal when a screener is sleeping on the job.
