just saw the most recent TSA 'secret test' results for TSA pre-boarding screening.....

is this another example of mind-boggling .gov incompetence, or is this disinformation for some covert purpose?


I quit flying nearly 30 years ago so it really doesn't matter in my own daily life.
 
Not surprised. A couple years after firing a guy from federal employment [do you have any idea how hard that is?] I met him in the screening line at the Portland airport, working as a TSA employee. I said 'hi Ed.' He said, 'hello Mr. D____' I walked away thinking they will hire anybody.
 
I worked airport security pre-9/11/TSA and they mostly hired those idiots. The people I worked with were all gutter trash. I made $8/hr to keep millions pf people safe.
Sketchy.

I had stuff stolen from me by security workers.

The TSA isn't any better, higher paid, less punishment, and lazy as F***.
 
When they made them Federal and let them join a Union everyone knew this is what would happen. When you take people and give them a job where they basically can't be fired you have to expect this. There is always those who really care and try. There is always going to be those who as soon as they figure out they can almost do as they please and no one can fire them, well they act just like that. Now of course the same people who made this mess will scream they need more money to fix what they broke. Can't say I blame them. Voters keep falling for this for decades. So the people in charge sit behind closed doors having a great laugh at how easy it is to fleece the rubes.
 
I think TSA employees with a failure rate lower than 95% represent a threat to their supervisors. They weed them out to protect their jobs, many later become politicians.
 
Defund, Disband and contract out to the security firms who guard our military bases and nuke facilities.

Also, no more mandatory nude-o-scoping without a primary-screening trigger.

What's wrong with you people. You should be celebrating with them on their 5% success rate!

Now get off your butts and put your hands in the air!

No, wait, that sounds wrong...

You do realize the 5% stat was probably fudged upward 4.957% so the supervisors would get bigger bonuses...

Why can't the military guard their own bases? When I get nude-o-scoped I always like to do a couple of hip thrusts to pay them back...

The government contracts people for a lot of reasons. Mostly its deniability, but its not just deniability. You can just fire the contractor if they mess up, while with someone in the military you have to go through the processes (think money and paperwork) if you want them out.

And if they're Civil Service... you'd have an easier time ripping out a colon polyp with your bare hands than getting rid of even the most malfeasant, caught-balls-deep-in-small-child Civil Service tenure-protectee.
