Considering how this thread expanded, I'm not sure who you're responding to.

It was more of a "this is what my tax dollars is paying for?" eye rolling moment. That being said, the TSO who joked that we couldn't bring our baby on the plane was apparently loitering not doing whateve her job was and was assigned to go do something by her manager as we finished putting our shoes on, so there are at least some professional in management at the TSA.

I was responding to you, which is why I nested it under your comment. I did a double take at tibbon's response to me, but it seemed like he was taking it on a slight tangent, as happens.

I just have to imagine if it was my kid, I would have freaked out and been a little pissed off. I don't think I could have kept my cool as you have, and I fear for the consequences of that.
