We may all rest easy now!

The TSA Administrator, Mr. John Pistole, has recently stated that there is no need for any additional testing, by an outside laboratory, to allay the uneasiness of the flying public about the safety of the full body scanners. We guess, that includes all of us, who are exposed to this so called "safe radiation."

Somehow, we are not satisfied with his lack of concern or his assurances, are you?

Have you ever wondered why....

our part time employees are getting health care benefits? Well, it's not because of anything that our wonderful union has done. And it isn't because CAS thinks that it is the right thing to do. It is because of something called the " Quality Standards Program" and becomes effective 30 days after your start date.

(SFO has a requirement, under the QSP, that covers "covered" employees. If you provide security services you are a covered employee.)

So, if the union tries to take credit for this benefit you can tell them that you know better.

Let's Not Let The Truth Get In The Way!

Rep. John Mica is continuing with his tirade against the TSA and is attempting to overstep his boundaries. Luckily, he is being met head on by other members of Congress. Does anyone else ever wonder why he seems to have nothing else on his plate? When will he ever stop listening to Gee Bee?

And why is he "highlighting" these, according to him, the idiotic methods and procedures of the TSA? Does all this stem from the need for a more visible national platform? What are his real motivations?
