When I've gotten hit with the dreaded SSSS or the extra search, I always ask someone on end of the conveyor belt to bring my belongings to my screening area after x-ray. Oftentimes, this is someone different than a (power-hungry?) screener who directs you towards the extra search zone. I leave the power-hungry ones alone to soak up in their ego.
