(US GOVERNMENT) Agency in the Department of Homeland Security (DHS). Mostly a new entity, which is perhaps the single most conspicuous domestic policy failure of the US government since 2000.
The TSA's job is to inspect baggage carried on flights at 450 international airports in the USA. Implementing this mandate simply consisted of "federalizing" thousands of private-sector employees who had been woefully under-qualified. Initially, the DHS had been formed explicitly to break law enforcement unions (which contribute to fighting corruption in law enforcement, as well as protecting law enforcement officers' rights as employees). In the case of the TSA, this had disastrous consequences for the quality of air travel.

The Transportation Security Administration has one mission, namely, to check passengers and luggage at 450 international airports across the USA. It does not inspect freight or border entries; that is done by Customs and Border Protection. For this function, it employs 45,000 screeners under lousy conditions with awful pay. And it spends more doing this one thing than Sweden spends on its entire military.

This is the tremendously flexible patience you have to use to deal with the sorts of weirdos and headaches you encounter on public transportation
After the homeless woman shit on the seat next to her and the subway lights went off, Lisa had to use a serious amount of public transportation patience to get through every second.

This is another description of a trolley boy. When still at college I collected trolleys for a large supermarket, and this was the job description for that job.
To make sure that the customers have access to a trolley if they require one.
