People checking ID isn't a problem to me and it doesn't take long. What really grates is the security checks and searches which vary from place to place, which fanny around sometimes asking me to remove shoes, belt, lap top - and then sometimes they don't. Sometimes they don't like me carrying a lighter or nail clippers and sometimes they don't care. Sometimes they search for liquids and sometimes they don't even like my lip balm. Sometimes they have me going back through the machines and waving their magic wands around trying to find my loose change. Sometimes the people in front are well prepared to be patted down and felt up and sometimes they haven't a clue and the numpties cause a delay. Sometimes I find that there is one or two security areas open when to cope with volume they need 10 open.

That's the pain in the jacksie - not checking my ID.
