My rule of thumb is whatever cutting is necessary to get me within 3 or 4 of the x-ray machine. I tend to get gassy when people don't let me cut.

Ever heard of professional courtesy?

"TSA" and "professional" do not belong in the same sentence.

You were incorrect 5 times in all 5 sentences! Strong work! Tell ya what, you go stand in line and hold my place for me; I'm not showing any earlier.

TOTD? The cat rancher flight attendant with her roller bag and 3 huge add-ons who blocks the airport bus isle with the bags rather than stowing them properly.

Another? How about a guy who leaves the "Sanicom" wipe IN THE OXY MASK, so when I want to use it there's a dried up, smelly piece of paper stuck inside that I have to remove first.

Me.

You know what they say: if you're playing poker, and you don't don't know who the sucker is...

Today, I can't seem to identify any particular toolish behavior in other, so I figure it's got to be me. At least I'm TOTD on a relatively tool-free day.
