I'll believe that. For your edification, when TSA was formed and initial staffing was done, the Dubya "administration" outlined its labor strategy. No unions. Wages mandated, and as low as possible. This agency deliberately staffed itself with "screeners" who have little successful employment experience and no valuable skills. Amusingly, more than 30% were terminated weeks and months later when it was learned they cannot pass a background check. You wanna meet some TSA people? The best place would be a city bus. That's how they get to work. Or anywhere else for that matter, I imagine.

The private company had options. Like I mentioned in the Public Sector Management thread. These two threads are related.
