If you hate your job so much, go to college and get a BA in something marketable like the rest of us.
Of course this doesn't apply to ALL screeners, there are professional, courteous screeners out there, I have yet to see one.
Not much that I have read on here has offended me, I agree with a lot of the comments I have seen posted. However, this one irks me. You are generalizing ALL screeners in your statements. (Even though you say you aren't). Yes, SOME fit your description, but the majority DO NOT. I wouldn't say that I am proud to work for the TSA, but I am proud of the work that I
do for the TSA. I have a college degree, I have common sense, I treat people with respect, I don't practice retalitory secondary screening, and I am not a moron. What I am is a single woman, trying to do my job, pay my mortgage, drive a stupid truck, take care of my stupid dogs, earn a decent wage and have some health insurance. So PLEASE, don't throw me into the mix of uneducated, lazy, ignorant, moronic people who are lucky to have high school diplomas and a job! Realize that the people you are refering to make up a small portion of the TSA, and that the majority of TSA employees are decent people.
