I haven't heard of too many of them quitting yet.

From the article:

"If something doesn’t change in the next two weeks I don’t know how much longer I can withstand this taunting. I go home and I cry. I am serving my country, I should not have to go home and cry after a day of honorably serving my country."

Oh, FFS. 

Where's that R Lee Ermey commercial when you need it?!?!?

F'n jackwagon.

Next thing you know it will be just like the "Postal" Office.
 


You know, "What does it mean when the flag is flying at half staff a the Post Office?"  "Their hiring."

That's kind of disrespectful to the reasons the flag is flown at half-staff...... don't you think??

BTW, it's "they're", not "their"

Gees Thor, give us a break here, this is why authors hire editors to pick up on miss spelling and dangling participles.

Yup yer absolutely correct they are actually was what I meant.  I liked my last postal person. But I guess he was too efficient, my mail always arrived at the same time during daylight hours.  The new person shows up within a three hour window, with the time change I have to leave the light on for him.

Well, this thread was about the TSA, NOT the USPS.....

I have my own opinions of the USPS and they're NOT very good.

Bonnie Fwank had planned to get a job as a TSA agent if he had lost the erection...uh...election...all the same to him.

This may actually get Bawney "Hold my Frank an Beans" back flying commercial.    What will his Fag Hag Chili Pingree (d Maine)  do without his company on her boy toy's private jet??

This situation has gone by humor and into the relm of farce.   It is just a matter of time before one of the TSA agents goes off the rails, this can't be any fun for them.  Dealing with the general public is one thing feeling the general public's pubics a whole other, even with gloves.

Barney Frank is still the butt of many ghey jokes.

Misspelling. One word.

"Molester, pervert, disgusting, an embarrassment, creep. These are all words I have heard today at work describing me, said in my presence as I patted passengers down. These comments are painful and demoralizing, one day is bad enough, but I have to come back tomorrow, the next day and the day after that to keep hearing these comments. If something doesn’t change in the next two weeks I don’t know how much longer I can withstand this taunting. I go home and I cry. I am serving my country, I should not have to go home and cry after a day of honorably serving my country."

Yes, that is what you will be called if you touch peoples 'junk.' If you truly love your country, then choose a job that does not violate peoples privacy and rights.

Years ago I knew many folk who were riffed and offered jobs in postal processing plants (sorry Thor I know, this is not about the PO but ).  Years later when the agency was re-hiring they returned ( almost to a man / woman ) and told the same horror stories. They would say "I know what they mean about going postal."  They would talk about dehumanizing conditions, lousy management, no support, no fulfillment and the same ton of mail every day.  Why did they stay?  Money.  There were no other jobs.  And that also led to the increased levels of frustration and dissatisfaction.  In short they felt trapped.  I suspect many TSA workers feel the same way.  Thanksgiving may just be the breaking point for some.

Miss Spelling........was my damn good looking ninth grade history teacher.....and Miss Good was the even better looking ninth grade science teacher that liked to rub her boobs on the back of my head....not that there was anything wrong with that. It's just that stupid, bashful, shy me kept leaning forward until she would have my head wedged between her tits and the desk top....just let one try that shit now.

Ya know I gave ya a ^5 for that but it probably should a been a BS because it brought back the horror of almost being smothered by the 6'th grade principal's over endowment and cheap perfume ( she was one of the ones who must have felt compeled to wear the crap the kids gave her) when she slapped me in a bear hug.  Oh,
the shame of it all!
