All I wanted was to see some intelligent discussion about not everyone doing things the same way everywhere, I'd liked having CC seeing things from a PAX perspective once and viceversa, but I ended up being lectured trice.
I rest my case, most CCs and FDs that probably are the absolute best in their profession, when it come to a normal discussion, seems to be able to stick to worn and generic arguments only.
6chimes, it's certainly commendable that you have such a commitment in being the "last line of defense" in this "war on terror".
But, if ever (heaven forbids) you are held at knifepoint by some terrorist, you will then find who the last line of defense really is. To be overly clear: many angry passengers.
You aren't the only ones to have learned the lesson, but most of the time behave and talk like it was so.
