that is understandable but that isnt really the airport, the handler is the party there thats embarrassing, the whole low cost avaition network is the reason for this, they batter airports and handling companies and everyone else involved down to the bare minimum so that people are just churned out onto the ramp/checkin with bare minimum traning now that it is now a safety hazard. I was talking to a dispatcher the other day and they didnt even know where to take passengers out of the lounges to the various assembly areas!!
