Which I already stated that I did. As for my last name, you have no right to it. If you want a investigation done, the first name and number on my tag will do. I have no reason to give you my name so you can come and take out your anger with the TSA on me at my personal home. Passengers have no problem squaring off with screeners in the checkpoint, so my fear in my view is not a bad thing.

Nope the supervisor wasn't a .... I clearly stated that my name tag was clearly visible for the passenger. He wanted my whole name and he isn't entitled to that. He is entitled to my name and number which I made clear was visible.
When you wear the uniform in an official capacity, the public whom you serve has the right to identify you. This supercedes your right to privacy.
Checks and balances. I don't request your ID, so why can you request mine? My supervisor or lead can request your ID, the check and balance works then. Again read my post, my last name is no concern to you and my tag name and number are on visible display. You can identify me by these two items.
