Head of O'Hare Security says it sucks
In the eight months that I was the head of security under the Andolino administration, the commissioner of the busiest airport of the world, depending on who’s taking the survey, the busiest airport in the world, never once had a meeting with the head of security for the busiest airport in the world. Never once.
Mayor Richard Daley, who appointed the former security boss, says the man is just “disgruntled.”
Daley’s comment is a fascinating confirmation. Maurer, the head of security, ought to be disgruntled if he was completely blocked from getting anything done.
And good for him for speaking out.

Don’t worry. This will all be fixed by the new scanners that are coming on-line at ORD starting today. Move along.
A penetrating response! You see right through me!
