Wooohooo! I passed!
 
Just a personal note, I passed my PSE's today after a couple of days of being nervous nellie. I am now recertified for another year as a LTSO. :cool:

It’s Happy Hour where I’m at; I’ll crack open a beer in your honor!

What would happen if you didn’t pass, though?

What percentage of people don't pass?

What happens if one should not pass?

How many tries before attempts to pass end?

Congrats!

So we can expect you to continue to post at PV for the coming year? :)

I failed the original tests and had to undergo remediation. Possibly because I was nervous nellie and the fact I forgot the advisements because most of my hand wandings and pat down victims are of course frequents who go through this three times month/week.

think of it as giving up a very soft goal ;)-it happens to the best of us but no worries, you still get a tootsie-pop on my next visit back home :)

Many, many sincere congratulations. At last I feel free to return to America's airports with no fear of disgusting, illegal public humiliation in the "Security" gauntlets.

Looking out my window I notice hell may be starting to thaw.

Thank you all for the congrats! It means quite a bit. If I did not pass, I would have to undergo remediation and feel like a dumbass for the next year.

Uhhh, I don't know, that is something I never really paid attention to, since I am an OJT monitor, I focus more on helping people with areas they need help in (all year long, not just now!).

If I fail, I remediate and feel stupid for a year.

I have no clue, that is something I have never had to go through, so I am not certain.

I hate that you had to go through that. It is really nervewracking and the week leading into it, the vasat majority of people are a "nervous nellie". I hope next year you ace it!

Side note, yes I should be posting here at FT for the next year!
