Re: All the people on here complaining about the TSA need to realise something...
You're taking a narrow view... I travel constantly for work, and I mean for WORK, not BUSINESS... that means I fly around with a toolcase and perform actual physical labor... kinda hard to do that over the phone! Also, if you haven't noticed, there is a lack of talent & work ethic in vast areas of the country.., that's why I flew from MN to Manhattan 15 times last year... our clients would rather pay a minimum of $3,000 just for my travel expenses then hire somebody locally to do the work. What I do is not exactly rocket surgery, I'm in the freakin' AV industry! It's just that MOST people suck and don't have the integrity to do the job right. Now, I also went at least 15 other out of state locations last year... if I drove to all of them, I would be on the road constantly and never see my wife and kids. Also, I did projects in Hawaii, India, and China... I don't know if you've checked a map lately, but we don't live on Pangea... the continents are separated by water now... kinda hard to drive there... where are you from, by the way? I have a hunch just by your mentality...

rant


how do you get the tool case past security?

they seriously pay $3000 to fly you to the most populated city in the country, because they can't find someone local? wow. that's awesome man. Even when you can bittorrent final cut?

I'm from MN


Tools are checked luggage, they get a TSA search every time... they leave a little slip to let you know.... it costs about $3,000 including airfare, hotel, per diem, cab fare, baggage.... not including labor @ $65 per hour. I would not have guessed that you were from MN... what part!?

Minneapolis proper. Also in the A/V field.

I really hope people realise that I'm trying to be funny here. I think riling people up on GLP is good entertainment.

I'm sorry if people don't understand my sense of humour. If I could speak these words instead of type. You would hear it in my voice inflections.

I do video editing. After Effects, some 3D, voice overs, foreign language subtitles, DVD authoring. I would really prefer to record music, but can't find any bands with money, so I took a part-time corporate post production job.

What good is their Hegelian bio-metric I.D. card if you still refuse to fly????....

Thus the point.

We must protest with our non-compliance, inactivity, filibustering, boycotting, and all around knuckle dragging until ready to spill blood in defense of our rights and freedoms.

Well, I do AV design, installation, and control system programming... so not kinda different... I have MANY friends in production though. I used to be in production too, I went to Music Tech for engineering (now IPR), started a record label, got screwed, started installing/upgrading recording studios, that led to commercial AV... then programming... huge money if you have the drive to learn & work hard... but that could be said for just about any field!

Re: All the people on here complaining about the TSA need to realise something...
ask yourself, why do you NEED to fly?
 Quoting: redpill 1075432

why shouldn't people drive and fly - are they gonna
cause global warming and melt the himalayas by 2030 or something ?
