It’s fun when one TSA employee tells you that you don’t need to take off your shoes and one ten feet away tells you to take off your shoes.

I went through security at one airport and was told "Everything goes on the belt!", so I put everything on the belt. The next day I'm going through another airport and I put everything on the belt, and then I get yelled at for not having my boarding pass on me and was told that I'm supposed to have that on me at all times. I used to think that they did this to keep people always guessing and never being able to know what the requirements will be when going through security. After all, if the process is always changing then it's harder to plan for holes in the process.

But then I realized that they aren't that smart, it's just incompetence.
