Yesterday, I entered my home airport (DFW) through a security check point fully staffed by the TSA for the first time. I was shocked! They were courteous, efficient, intelligent, and American! But it didn't stop there. They actually treated me like what I am, their partner in airport security...as opposed to a potential security threat that the Argenbright knuckleheads treated me like.
After I cleared the entry, I went over to the supervisors and shook both their hands, told them that we were all glad to have them (the TSA) there, and that they were doing a great job.
I don't think anyone ever complimented them before; they didn't know what to say.
I don't know if the TSA is going to completely fix airport security--I tend to doubt it--but I'm glad to see them focusing their attention on actual problems instead of flight crews. By the way, I'm not alone in this attitude; everybody I talked to from my company agreed that the TSA is a massive improvement over what we had.
I hope they keep it up.
