What puzzles me is why Bart and TSORon spend any time on this particular board. Are they trying to convert us?

If we're all such miserable folk, perhaps they'd be happier at some other aviation board where their profession and talents are appreciated.

Oh, that's right, that board doesn't exist! :D

Whoops, the definition of "profession" pretty much totally excludes TSORon, Brat, and the rest of their lot:


http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Profession

"'A profession is a vocation founded upon specialised educational training, the purpose of which is to supply disinterested counsel and service to others, for a direct and definite compensation, wholly apart from expectation of other business gain'. According to the Oxford English Dictionary, professions involve the application of specialised knowledge of a subject, field, or science to fee-paying clientele. It is axiomatic that 'professional activity involves systematic knowledge and proficiency.' Professions are distinguished from other occupations represented by trade groups due to their level of legal recognition."

A baptism by screening?:rolleyes:

You guys sound like a bunch of 10 year olds.

So by all means, don't hang around here if you don't like our posts.

Unless someone is holding a gun to your head, you do have other options, don't you?

The entertainment value is priceless. Watching a bunch of 30-50 year old folks claiming to be business people while making some of the statements I've read on here beats the crap out of dropping $20 on a lousy movie. ^

Well, while you were gone, there was a distinct lack of name calling and uncivil behavior by most posters. Ah, the good old days......

Which guys? The "anything for the children" ones who don't care about our liberties whatsoever? Or the ones who think we are safer if we take off our shoes and put our liquids in a bag and don't question anything? :rolleyes: :td:

Oh, and let's not forget the TSOs who think it is ok to put medical equipment in the same bins as shoes have been in and then decide to manhandle the same medical equipment without changing their gloves!

These are REALLY highly educated, trained individuals!!!

For once I agree with you. In the past year, I have not seen much change in the TSA either. Well except for the blue smurf shirts and tin badges. :rolleyes:
