Seriously how do the airports find these people? Do they put out an ad in the newspaper like this -

"Airport security staff required, must be insensitive, miserable and generally disliked by the public. Must have vendetta against rocket blowers and other photographic equipment. Minimal communication skills needed. Intelligence preferred but not necessary. Previous experience in customer aggravation welcome. Apply within."

Ha, Ha, Ha, Dear Friend Zv.
Ha, Ha, Ha----If I am out of work, I might apply for this position----Ha, Ha, Ha.

Actually, there are certain jobs where intelligence (or at least too much of it) can be a drawback. Although, I would question why an organization would want to hire the insensitive, the miserable and such!

A few years back there was an incident in Connecticut that got notice, where an applicant for police officer was passed over in favor of ones who scored lower on an intelligence test. He filed suit, went to court AND LOST!

Here's a link to some of the logic behind never hiring someone to smart for their job: http://www.anxietyculture.com/ratmaze.htm

I'm probably now on there, too. I'll find out when I fly again next week!

Meanwhile, here's another link on how being too intelligent can hurt you: http://www.independent.co.uk/news/dont-enjoy-your-job-then-maybe-youre-too-smart-for-your-own-good-1122677.html

I found it interesting to see where the ideal candidates for each position fell. In several of the highly-skilled ones, the worker was clearly smarter than his boss. (But, we already knew that! :) )

It sounds like Precheck works pretty well. It comes as a benefit with my AMEX Platinum card but I haven't had a chance to complete the application process. The airports that do the in-person part are the same ones that I usually have a very short layover at, so it hasn't worked out. I might have to finish the process based on your comments, though. Thanks for the information and I'm happy to hear that you and your finless Rocket blower are traveling well :)

On my recent trip to Yellowstone via Montana I used United and their program to upgrade yourself to a better category for boarding the plane. I figured this would help with all my photo gear and to make sure it had space in the bin and under the seat. The surprise was that I also got TSA Precheck which worked out really well as it is much harder to keep an eye on your expensive camera gear while also taking off your shoes and getting them back on.

I'm not sure if this was a mistake, or another benefit to the upgrade.

On another note, United was late into LAX and dumped me into LA in the middle of the night without any help in getting a motel and no compensation - they always blame the flight controllers and take no personal responsibility for their own actions.
