  TSA idiots

  We should invest in better more efficient technology like other countries and get rid of the idiots that work for TSA. Do these people make you feel safer?

  I check all my baggage, even my cosmetics now. I quit taking perfume, after TSA undid the lid to a $50/ounce channel and it ended up pouring out into my bag. More than they uncapped my hair gel an it was all over my bag. Then I started putting little notes inside my bag: "TSA if you are going to riffle through my bag, Please, Please,Please put the caps back on."

  I Pack all my cosmetic items double plastic bags inside another bag and check it all. I quit carrying perfume.

  Funny thing I always carry my medicine and lipstick in my purse and they have never stopped me for that. I even had a nail file in there, I forgot to take out an they did not catch it.

  My husband a titanium hip replacement. We have to make sure we add extra time. Some airports can pick up with one scan other he gets a strip search. I got into a laughing fit one time when this young guy kept running that scanner up and down and in between my husbnads legs, as my husband kept pointing to his right hip. My husband thought they were going to haul me off.

  At the United at SFO they have person who appears to be an ex-marine shouting orders to passengers. Not a pleasant experience if you have not had your morning coffee.
