TSA
Monday, 23. November 2009
Good evening fellow hat wearers. After a recent trip to Seattle, I have a little security venting to do. My flight plan was home to chicago— chicago to Seattle.
My flight to chicago was rather uneventful, enjoyable even. Arriving in Chicago, I made my way to the transfer gate. As we lined up like cattle to enter the pen, I noticed 3 TSA agents and a little push cart by the door.. oh whatever could be happening?
On the loud speaker ” We will begin boarding now… and the TSA will be doing random screenings of carry on luggage” Great…
In Short.. Yes I got picked. Yes I made it through fine.
To vent: The TSA inspection was pure CYAS (Cover Your Ass Security). The inspection was an opening of one of my backpacks zippers, glancing in, and waving me on. (note: my pack has no less than 5 different zipper compartments, and was loaded with wires and electronics) A true waste of time and resources.
