It's neither Mr. or Ms. http://www.flyertalk.com/travel/fttr...orum/smile.gif

I have seen enough variation in their responses to convince me that there is more than one person behind the TSA typing. Sadly, only a couple seem to be competent yet misguided in their choice of career. The rest live up to their billing - people with a disgusting disdain for the principles upon which this country was founded and a snotty "we can do what we like" attitude to boot.

Mr or Ms Spiff: I loved this comment of yours. By the way, am I the only person who suspects that all of the TSA-employee posts are the work of a single multiple-personality screener? It really seems unlikely that so many of this bunch would get off on the hostility they invite.

You are an employee of an organization that has caused great disdain among the frequent flier community. Instead of acting as a bridge and resource for the frequent flying public (which would be very constructive for both of our groups), you are merely proving our assumptions correct by acting in the way that you are: that TSA screeners are undereducated, immature people with power trips who enjoy providing harassment to individuals simply because they can.</font>
So all the insults that some of you have heaped on the TSA guys showed your education and class? Nice folks you are. I don't blame them for their actions as they were baited from the start.

That's a nice philosophy! It's OK as long as you were baited. http://www.flyertalk.com/travel/fttr...orum/frown.gif

Sorry, government employees were held to a higher standard when I was one.

I'm showing my education and class by stating what I've observed thus far. I've asked fair and objective questions.

Apparently some of the angry screeners aren't familiar with the first rule of holes: When you're in a hole, quit digging yourself deeper.
