I loved it when we had contractors checking I.D's. Some of them were very good, very fast, and never missed a discrepancy. Others were slower, a little less organized at juggling 6 I.D's and 6 BP's, trying to match them to their rightful faces. The good ones kept the lines flowing, the bad ones had them backed up. Same as TSA. We got people out there who have it down to a system, can quickly verify what they need to, and get people on their way. Then we have the ticket checkers who act like it is their first day on the job, every day. Not much had changed after TSA took over I.D checks, but since they added the black lights and loupes it is a totally different story.
