Low risk travelers ;-) can be assigned Pre Check. But its never guaranteed. Also be aware that even though you official have TTP or GE you can be randomly selected by the Homeland Security for standard screening...just to keep you on your toes.

I once watched a well-suited-self-important guy get pulled. Oh the fireworks!! Mind you this was in Milwaukee in the middle of the day so its not a big deal. He could not let it go.

He ended up at the same gate as me and proceeded to call his PA to get on the phone with someone in charge at the airlines, homeland security, et al (he had a very rich target environment) and "get to the bottom of this". The indignities. I prayed that the PA's resume was up to date and there were greener pastures

It could have been worse...he could have made to the TSA Pre line. Smirking at the rabble as you go by.... And realize he lost his DL in the airport . That's karma (not that it happened to me...I am wayyy to careful.....never could happen....)
