I'm thinking its for a higher up position, maybe someone that oversees them? That would explain the high pay rate yet requirement to do those tasks. You also need some really high security credentials.

But pretty much free **** if they implement those x-ray machines. No one ever said high quality **** though.

And they wonder why the employees aren't "vigilant" every second of their shift, of every day they are at work. Perhaps if they weren't so stressed over the bills getting paid, they might focus on whether someone is actually suspicious or intending harm. Just a thought, considering a Costco employee can make that much (if not more) I would imagine, and that is a far cry from public security.

THis is such bull****. Sure the nudey pic is nice but seriously this whole idea reeks.

Are these 'special' xray machines that are not toxic to the body??? Because you know at the doctors office the Radiologist puts a LEAD blanket to cover your private parts to prevent radiation!!

I for one will absolutely not go through one of these machines, I don't care if they treat me like a terrorist. **** them.

So I heard that the screeners watching these images are not in the same area and will not see the people being scanned face to face.

So... in a back room looking at these pics? Even better. Time to apply.

I found a job listing for this on craigslist, for some odd reason one of the perks of the position was unlimited boxes of Kleenex.

not too sure what that is all about ...

Don't we have enough sercurity already? Besides other countries only have uptight sercurity when planes are coming into the US. So is it nesscary for US to have such uptight sercurity checks for planes going out of the country. Just came back from China and i had to go throught 2 check points before boarding. x.X
