man, how long ago was that?

Boosh!

6 months maybe?

I think he meant "how long ago was it when she cut your hair?" Or more to the point, when you had hair to cut.

Lol @ "thought it was a laser pointer." So it took six of them to unsuccessfully determine what the device was. Awesome.

And these are the people who are supposed to figure out what a bomb is.

TSA personified....

LOL @ him saying he's never done drugs in his life. That's an actor!

God dam window lickers..............don't get me started on those idiots.



The first day they wore their "badges" and blue moron shirts, I was going through the checkpoint at BNA(Nashville) with my crew. Had a female look me in the eye and ask if I liked the new "look"?

She added that the badges were cool as well, I chose my words carefully as everything is recorded and I was in uniform. "They look like the mall rent-a-cop badges cool!" Gave her the big thumb's up gesture.

Blank look on her face...................

I'm so glad I never took that job. I actually applied, interviewed and was hired when this all started up. Believe it or not, after seeing the other hirees, I had a change of heart.

Bunch of mouth breathers. I get red hot every time I go through there. No TSA agent has ever said "Hey I just caught a terrorist!"

They're too busy feeling up ma-maw.

No because they are a great deterrent!! No one will try anything with them around. God forbid the coffee you are sipping from is over 3 ounces or don't take your belt off.

There are still way to many people who are clueless though. I went through security this morning and there was someone with a coke in their bag.

You could have been king of the window kickers!

I went in looking for a supervisor position and was offered a managerial spot. Could you imagine where that could have gone? I'd be either fired or in jail by now.

But think of the cool stories you'd have, not to mention all the fingernail clipper you could confiscate!

Soooooooooooo this is the latest "security" measures these window lickers are doing to us.


More waste of life!

"We have recently learned that the TSA has ramped up two types of inspections: First, expect TSA Inspectors to remove their badges and any signs of identification and walk around in access-controlled areas such as the lower level of the terminal or the ramp. Any employee who encounters an inspector in this situation should challenge them, asking for identification. If they do not have identification, they should be escorted out of the area and the police should be notified. If an employee does not challenge the inspector, we fail the inspection. Second, at some airports, aircraft security searches are conducted at night, the aircraft is then sealed. In the morning, the seals are inspected. If the seals are good, the aircraft is opened and ready for departure. If any seals are broken, a new security inspection must occur. The TSA is breaking seals and then waiting to see what actions the Agents will take. Although this type of inspection does not directly involve the Flight Crew, it may be beneficial for you to be aware of the type of inspections that can be conducted."


A few years ago, some genius decided to test the after hours security of our aircraft. This was in ORD(Chicago). they accessed the ramp area, climbed up the outside of the aircraft using the pitot tubes,AOA vanes, Air Data probes, and anything that looked like a hand-hold or foot-hold. Then they opened the emergency escape hatches on the roof of the cockpit and various other emergency openings. In the process they bent,broke off said probes and AOA vanes making the aircraft useless for the morning kick-off flights. 25 aircraft were damaged in all, and 25 more had to undergo an inspection. This cost us several million dollars in damage. The ring leader lost his job and the higher ups threatened us with a fine because of the ability to access the aircraft!

Now that should make all of us feel safe!
