Re: first day of ojt Reply #5 – April 12, 2005, 07:24:13 PM I know what you do Dare... Im trying to get into MCO Brooklyn with the BOP (Federal Bureau of Prisions)Currently I am employed by the Dept of Homeland Security as a TSA Dual Certified Screener. I am a certified x-ray operator and qualified on an operator level for 3 different ETD (explosive trace detection) machines. Some days the job just plain sucks, others its great. I work in a slow airport that has more than its fair share of amazing women flying in and out, and you'd be suprised how many of them have adult pleasure devices. I even had the pleasure of screening a dominatrix's bag... whips and chains, ropes and handcuffs. Quote Selected
