In a few hours I would be going through security in a brand new Southeastern European Airport. Just the idea of using this airport give me a headache let alone having to deal with people that believe they are emperors and Gods on earth.

I feel that they over-enjoy the sens of authority and control their job provide and they consider it an extra benefit. For a short period of time I thought about the idea of them having a target number of items to be confiscated. So they just search and search and confiscate everything they can -inventing few regulations they like to justify any actions.

I have no problems with people they are think are God provided they cause no problems to me. Unfortunately they are paid more than decent salaries from the airport taxes we pay and replacing a confiscated item costs me money.

And we only have to remember the guy who carry on board a shoe bomb despite all security checks...

I would stop here because the next thought would land me in very hot water...
