Last 6 out of 7 times I've flown from LEX (and manymany before I was making LexPax keep track, too!) I have been secondaried. It is almost entirely due to one attitudinal screener.

I fly a lot, as at least some of you here also do. I know exactly how to get through "security", and I haven't set off a beep since I took all the underwires out of my bras in late September of 2001 - OK?

But once, about the time DL started letting us print boarding passes on-line, I had a printed-out boarding pass, and was running late. I got told that I couldn't go through "security" without a valid boarding pass. I looked and saw that the line for the Next DL flight was very very long, so I said, "This IS a boarding pass", and argued, and asked for a supervisor (which took a LOT less time than going back and standing in the line would have been). And the supervisor person who intervened said, "Yes it is a boarding pass, let her through." So I got a big red S put on my boarding pass. It still was less time than going back would have been.

But it has been like that ever since. Instead of saying, Oh I learned something, and forgetting it, the screener involved makes sure I get secondaried. This is a small airport, so I know what I'm talking about. And you know, I am sick of it.

I rarely have problems with screening most places. SDF - no problem! SAN - no problem! (To name the other airports I usually fly through.) Most other airports, no problem. Yes, there are random idiocies, but this is harrassment without even being able to complain about No Fly lists. I've had my purse taken out of my sight (and put down directly beside the Harrassing screener while many many other items were run through the scanner). I am consistently made to take off one layer silk jackets (!) and rerun them through Xray. Shoes are just silly.

To repeat. I am sick of this. The one time I was NOT secondaried was last Christmas when *surprise* a certain TSA employee was not there. I don't want to have to drive to SDF all the time if I can help it, but what can I do?

We are keeping a log now of dates and particulars, but so?
