You're definitely not under-staffed. You're over-directed. You have people uselessly harassing people at the gates. Every one of them can be let go. You have people randomly screening people at the checkpoints. Fire them too. You have people opening checked luggage because your machines can't tell chocolate from C-4. They can hit the road. You can also lose a few people due to the the Great Pointy Object Search for non-credible threats. Time to smarten up and slim down. You have more than one ID check - time to can the extra ID checkers. In fact, you can pass that job off to the airlines. The ID check provides revenue protection for them and zero security.
Your staffing problems and my tax/ticketing fee problems have just been solved.

Sorry CG, but that is just not possible. A 25% cut accross the board would decimate RDU. We are understaffed as is. There is a mobile screening force in place, just to give us minimal manpower.
Now if the airlines keep going the way their going now, you won't need a screening force.
