On 9/11, TSA Agents Stopped Screening Each Other

In yet another 9/11 surprise (see The New TSA Uniform), the Transportation Security Administration has started allowing it’s screeners to bypass security. The agency claims that it’s draining resources at a time when they’re needed the most.

“We have to put our resources where we believe the risk is greatest. Does it really make sense for the Transportation Security officers to spend time screening each other rather than focusing on the unknown out there?” asked Carrie Harmon, TSA public affairs manager. Funny, that’s something us pilots have been asking each other for 7 years, but about why WE are getting screened.

Harmon says they [the TSA Agents] “are security professionals and deserve to be treated as such”.

SO WHAT ABOUT US PILOTS!!!

Folks it’s times like this that I really just need to go and get on the motorcycle for a while. I have officially lost all patience to continue typing. You could say I’m overreacting, but watch the video above and maybe you’ll see where I’m coming from.

:shock: Capt’n Chris

  1. hahahahaha! Great. I found an abandoned duffel bag in the airport and told a TSA officer that he should check it out and he told me that it wasn’t his job and then he went into the bathroom. HA! So I went to the police phone and a cruiser pulled up in 10 seconds flat!

  2. Not surprising at all.
