Like Rick I try to be as nice to them as possible. They're just doing their job. I'm sure they want to get me through that line just as quickly as I do.

After all, you don't blame the McDonald's clerk for the company policy that ruined their french fries. Unless you're Dipso.

Went through the airport today. Didn't get the pat down or the the full body x-ray. As I was gathering my pack and shoes I said to the supe and an agent "I know you guys get a ration of crap but I just want to thank you for your service." They both looked at me like I gave them each a C note. With mouths agap, the supe says "Wow! Thank you sir!"

Next time you get frisked by someone who is just doing their job to get a paycheck think to your self "all but for the grace of God go I..."

I'd say I work for the T&A agency, and I spend my days groping boobs and crotches.

No, seriously, I would shot a bullet in my head.

No, very seriously I would never ever consider such a job. There is always a choice to do something else.

Oh geez . ..now the TSA agents are crying that they are victims in all of this.

TSA workers face verbal abuse from travelers - todaytravel - TODAYshow.com

Quote:
Another said: “Being a TSO means often being verbally abused. You let the comments roll off and check the next person; however, when a woman refuses the scanner then comes to me and tells me that she feels like I am molesting her; that is beyond verbal abuse.”
Too funny. Apparently the TSO (the one actually feeling-up the woman) is claiming to be the victim. ...and doesn't understand that the word "molest" means 'to bother.' ...although, the woman likely meant it as sexual molest.

Anyway, as if groping is less offensive than the 'verbal abuse" of saying "hey, you're groping me."
