The Ultimate Jobsworth?
The other day I got to one of the airside security gates in Terminal 2 at MAN and passed my ID card through the window to be "swiped in". The person on duty there stood nonchalantly by the X-ray machine and said :
"Sorry mate, I can't swipe you in. I'm not trained up on that yet"
I swear this was not a wind up of any kind. Can any of you out there better this ? Or are all airport security like this now ?
