33. Early on after 9/11...
I will simply say, that early on after 9/11 when the TSA/DHS was in a frantic hiring mode for air marshals...

That there were any number of "questionable" male marshals on board flights.

More than once...one of the air marshals, was up running around, hitting on the female flight attendants or even
a female passenger.

As the "temps" (there were police , fire, EMTs, etc.) were gotten rid of and full time marshals were hired, the level of professionalism rose greatly.

I never saw any bad behavior after those early days.

Too bad about this...but there are just plain old bad apples out there in the world, in about every profession.
