Don't leave out those bastard recruiters.

Whilst we're at it, those tw@ts at Heathrow Airport Security......we could almost do with a Poll.

Ooh, interesting. Why them in particular? I've never found Heathrow to be that bad. It's the passengers who are the morons in those queues I find.

The worst airport security, Delhi. **** me, it takes hours AND there are the moron passengers as well.

In general, I just find them full of their own self importance. Always barking orders, telling you what to do / can't be done. Not an ounce of personality. Never seen one smile so far.

Maybe it's just me they don't like.....not that I'm paranoid or owt. As an work colleague used to say - just because you're not paranoid, doesn't mean they're not out to get you.

Fair dinkum. I've never paid much attention to them to be fair, I'm the kind of nerd with belt off, laptop out and everything prepared whilst in the latter stages of the queue, so they must love me....

Found customs a real pain. Been stopped regularly when traveling back the past couple of years , and if ever there was a group of people who can't take a joke, it's them.

At least Heathrow security is quick . They do a great job considering the volume of people.

I have recently read your posts from back in 2012 where you were to leave Doha in 2 and half months. Guess what, I wouldn't have relocated to Doha had I read your comments 2 years ago. I am finally leaving Doha in nearly 2 and a half months. This place has no life, culture, vibe, energy or people to get social and spend a lifetime. I guess I only had 2 years worth of temperament to earn money and leave.

Yup, got collared a couple of years back bringing a shed load of cigs through, My own fault though. But the next trip home, I literally got asked by three Customs officials within the space of around 20 yards where I had travelled from and if i had any cigs. Obviously they're out to get me......:-)

Never really found Heathrow security that quick. I just find them far too self important.

Agreed, it's the fags they're after. What happened? Did they make you pay the duty or take them off you or what?
