Has anyone ever worked for the Transportation Security Agency (TSA) as an airport screener? How was the job, and did you like it? Why or why not?

Do a search on this website and you can read a few threads about the TSA and being a screener."Those who would give up essential Liberty, to purchase a little temporary Safety, deserve neither Liberty nor Safety."
Benjamin Franklin, 1755

I have heard that from a lot of TSA and former TSA folks. Originally Posted by Ironhead

That migh speak volumes about the quality of the employees...excluding Ironhead of course, he had the good sense to get out.;)Helen Keller graduated from college with honors. She was blind and deaf. So what's your problem?

I can tell you that a family friend used it as job when then when she was in school. She's liked it, and is in the academy for a local PD now. Never did finish school I guess that just wasn't her thing. Originally Posted by davejoyce2000
