Hmmm never had that problem. CVG employees are allowed to keep their shoes on during screening. I was wearing sandels (flip flops) and the TSA guy told me to remove them. I showed him my SIDA badge. He demanded again that I take them off and put them through the x-ray machine. I told him that employees aren't required to remove their shoes per the TSA. A supervisor overheard our argument and came over and told me to keep my sandels on and continue throught the metal detector. Onceont he other side he appologized for the agents actions and said that the agent was new.I've only seen it at CVG.
Worst part? CVG's problems weren't the massive lines in security, they were apathetic personnel at security that wanted to have a 60 second conversation with each and every person and demanding each individual crewmember wait behind the line until they wave you over like a dog.
I wouldn't be surprised if they demanded crewmembers get down on all fours, put a dog buscuit on all of our noses and command. "Noo... no... no.... wait.... wait... wait.... GO!"
Yes I'm serious and no I'm not drunk...
Well, at least not yet... It's only 2330!

If the airlines were smart they'd have first class lines only for first class, that don't dump into the regular screening lines. Defeats the purpose. Separate the classes.
