Re: TSA hires sex offenders.

As a six year veteran of the TSA, while draconian working conditions mitigated a bit over time, the politics of promotion favored the female over the male, and the "socially disadvantaged" over the educated and experienced, extra points for gender disorientation!!! As a pilot with over thirty active years in general and commercial aviation, a Bachelor's Degree in psychology, and valuable military combat experience against Viet Cong irregulars, I watched young female HS grads, some as young as 23 years old advance ahead of me, as well as gays and members of disadvantaged classes - a few were naturalized citizens with heavy accents. White men in their 50s were passed over repeatedly regardless of experience in aviation, military or with security backgrounds. Educational level was irrelevant. Mid level managers at the TSA exist to stomp out brush fires and discipline those who fail tests designed to catch the tired and overworked who might lose focus on the task at hand during moments of distraction. Screeners work in constant fear of a a sting operation coming through... Most prohibited items are caught in the screening process, but the law of averages dictates that a small percentage of items will get through. The job is hard, the hours are long, the pay is poor and not on a par with other government agencies. But there is no excuse for the incompetence of having the SOP on line for months. Heads should roll at the top
