People dislike the TSA, says Institute for the Study of Obvious Things {Gadling}

Jan 24th 2008 10:13PM As a former TSO working out of San Francisco Intl, I was always upset with the way the TSO's screened passengers and there luggage. Some of the screeners would go through the luggage like they didn't give a shit about taking care with the passengers belongings. I felt that some of the screeners I worked with were doing racial profiling when it came to secondary screening of passengers. When it came to screeners checking the x-ray machines for those prohibited items they weren't looking that closely and I felt that many things got through. And after the passengers were through being screened the screeners would talk about the passengers and make rude comments about what they may have found in a passengers luggage. The screeners seemed to be more interested in talking to each other about what they were going to do after work or over the weekend.
