Travel and TSA

While preparing for a trip and not only trying to decide how little I can take and not have to pay the bag fee of $50.00, I got to thinking of how everytime we enter into the line to have our carry on bags inspected, whether it is Domestic or International travel, I am always one of the "Chosen Ones" to be pulled into the little clear booth and get the "Wand". EVERYTIME! Hmm, random? Don't think so. I thought about how the inspectors wear the baggy little plastic gloves to shove their hands inside of suitcases and bags as well as do the "underwire" check on women, and they wear the same pair of gloves for their entire shift! I understand that they don't want to get whatever chemicals, powders, or, bacteria on their hands, but, do you think that I want whatever is on the outside of those gloves to get shoved into my suitcase or bag and on my belongings and under things? I think I will slow the process down a little from now on and ask for a new pair of gloves to be used on my bags.
