First of all thank you all very much for your input. I did 2 things yesterday. First was contact the TSA. I would love to know where they find the people that staff this call centre. Not qualified to do anything more than take your name, address, phone number and tell you somewon will contact you in the next 3-4 weeks. Brilliant! Next I took the advise of a previous poster and contacted the local FBI field office. They will see me early next week. Person I talked to was very polite and helpful but they cannot give any information out over the phone. Advised me that they were happy to help i9f they could however with the upcoming NYE celebrations the office was very busy. (I am currently in NYC) So I wait and see what unfolds. I also will be writing to the senior staff at Co. this week. My thinking here is that maybe they can use their powers in DC to help fix this problem not for me but across the board. I did not have a issue with this the first time it happened. 2nd time..... well...OK. But Monday was the 5th time!!! If the TSA continues to make it difficult for us FT'ers, how long will we stick around? As I said in my OP, I fly Co 60,000 miles per year give or take. I also fly about 20-25,000 miles per year on my clients private jets. (Yes, it is a really nice perk!!) That is up 75% since 2001 and the creation of the TSA!!!

I will continue to keep you updated, thanks again for your input. Please keep it coming.

Oh, and yes I also filed a complaint against the employee with the attitude. It was the TSA employee not the Co agent.
