Sounds like a sour ex-employee to me.

That being said, she is right. ORD security is a joke, anyone who flies there knows it.

So they fine Mesa $47K for not collecting an ex-employee's badge, which is actually serious, but they'll fine a commuting pilot $250,000 for changing out of his uniform while in possession of a full tube of toothpaste? Un-farking-believable.

Mansicalco says the threat of airport employees is real and points to numerous incidents including one in March at Orlando’s airport when two employees smuggled drugs and guns on to a plane, and earlier this month in New York at JFK Airport a former cargo worker was charged with plotting to blow up fuel tanks

Thanks ex-mesa flight attendant lady, thanks for lumping all workers together. That's all the public needs, another excuse to not respect/trust flight crews (not that there's alot of respect to start with).
