Not sure if you are aware of the “Flyer Talk” forums...but your story is perfect for the “Security” section. I have seen a few stories like yours over there (no glove change after handling multiple test strips, same strip twice, and no glove change after going down past waistband during “enhanced pat down”). The forum is here:

second the rec. to go to the flyertalk forums. I don’t go anywhere else for tsa/scanner/etc., info now.
I also won’t fly in the united states except when I simply have to (I don’t live in the US). I am done with the incremental police state crap, and am grateful that I am in a position both personally and professionally to simply decide not to live there anymore.
Thanks for your pointer to the flyertalk forums. I started a thread on the topic, which got locked at 61 responses and (so far) has just over 3 1/2 thousand views. The thread is here:
