I think this happened to me earlier this month. The screener told me to take off my shoes, I told him it wasn't required, he told me I'd have to face secondary, I said I'd take my chances. As I walked through, it beeped, which NEVER happens to me! Never!
Could he have caused a beep just for spite?
Did he, by any chance, extend his arm towards you to "usher" you through the WTMD? If so, he may have (intentionally) set off the WTMD with his watch, ring or other jewelry.
Did he then wand you? Any unexpected results?
