Do they only put honest screeners on Precheck lanes?

Maybe they have PreCheck because they were randomly selected by a computer from a list of passengers that day. Maybe they have PreCheck because they were randomly selected from another line by a dog. Maybe they have PreCheck because they were randomly pulled into the PreCheck line by a TSA employee.

Off topic, but 4 (FOUR) consecutive people just ahead of me at precheck in DEN were "randomly selected to go through the scanners" last week.

This is just another TSA epic fail with precheck. After having a clerk paw through my wallet after the nudoscope in BOS, I now make sure I put it in a zipped compartment in my carry on.

I 'de-metal' prior to entering the security screening area. Watch, cell phone, keys, change go in a mesh bag. Wallet is buried in my carry-on, but I remove my DL. But I love Pre-check and am so disappointed when I go somewhere that doesn't have it. (Like Heathrow)

I still prefer using fast track at Heathrow T5, I'm generally through within 3 minutes. TSA pre check can still mean it'll take 10 or 15 minutes.
