A social media influencer, with teary eyes, recalls a distressing incident involving what she perceived as impolite behavior by TSA employees during a security check, which left her feeling embarrassed.

Known as nnnnylsoj to her 1.8 million TikTok followers, Jos shared a video last Saturday detailing how she mistakenly checked the wrong bag at Austin International Airport before her flight to London, leading her to apprise a female TSA agent of the situation.

The 21-year-old content creator narrates that the TSA agent assisted her by guiding her to “swap your bag out” and instructed her to move to the priority check-in line once the exchange was completed.

However, this is where things took an awkward and embarrassing turn.

After switching the bags, Jos said she walked over to the priority check-in line like she was told, where a different male TSA agent started yelling at her for being on the wrong line.

Jos explained that the other agent told her to come through the priority line after switching her bag — and even pointed at the woman agent who told her to do so for backup, but it only made things go from bad to worse.

“She turns around and she goes, ‘No, no, I said go through normal TSA,’ whatever it’s called,” the influencer recalled. 

Jos claims that when the original woman TSA agent who helped her with the bag issue didn’t back up her claim, the other employees, who were all male, started “making fun” of her and left her feeling humiliated.

“I just got quiet because that is so embarrassing,” Jos told her followers as she sobbed to the camera.

But the ordeal continued to get worse for the TikToker.

Jos said she was now going through security and putting her stuff in the bin to be checked, but it wasn’t pushed enough to move through the machine.

She then claims a bunch of the male TSA employees “all start yelling” and noticed the woman employee who initially helped her “laughing.”

“And the girl in the f–king jacket starts laughing, and she’s like, ‘Oh my Gosh, y’all are yelling at her so much!’” the influencer painstakingly recalled. 

“Like, f–king pick me ass b–ch. Like a f–king female in a group of men.”

Jos, already embarrassed, pushed the bin herself, and the agents all allegedly condescendingly said to her, “Now you can have a fun trip,” after stressing her out and calling her out on the spot in front of other travelers.

“Like, why are y’all being rude? I’m just a sensitive person, but that was so mean,” the teary-eyed influencer questioned at the end of the video.

“I felt so embarrassed. I felt so stupid. I literally felt humiliated.”

While the experience may have left the young TikToker in tears, her devoted followers were there to have her back in the comments of the video, which garnered over 2.5 million views and nearly 400k likes since being posted.

“Girl file a report!! You don’t deserve that!” one of her followers suggested.

“ur definitely not being dramatic, people can be so rude for no reason,” another wrote.

“She was obviously looking for validation from her male coworkers smh don’t let it get to you,” wrote another user.

Other commentators tried shedding light on why TSA agents have a reputation for being rude to flyers.

“As a previous airport employee, they’re all assholes because they work sh-tty ass hours and h8 their job they rather take it out on others to make their day better,” one user wrote.

“All airport staff hate their jobs and lives I swear,” another pointed out.

“They are just mad that you are going on a trip and they are stuck at work. And yes I agree Austin TSA is horrible they are all rude for no reason,” commented another.
