YOUR FIRED! TSA Screener Fired After Leaving A Note Telling Passenger To 'get your freak on, girl'




The Transportation Security Administration has gotten bad vibrations from one of its screeners, who slipped a creepy note into a passenger's bag after finding a sex toy inside.
The screener's flippant note - "Get Your Freak On, Girl" - was a weird shoutout at lawyer and editor Jill Filipovic, who was toting around a vibrator in her bag as she boarded a flight at Newark Airport Sunday.
But the note proved to be quite a buzzkill - TSA officials said Thursday that the screener would be canned.
Filipovic, an editor at Feministe.com, was passing through the airport on her way to a conference in Ireland. After she made it through security, she noticed the note, written on a paper with TSA identification on it, in her bag.
She Tweeted about the note Monday, sending the TSA scrambling to identify the writer of the risqué missive.
The agency got to the bottom of it, but has refused to unmask the employee.
The agency "has initiated action to remove the individual from federal service," a TSA spokesperson said in a statement emailed to the News.
