Irish author says 'have a heart' and help staff at Dublin Airport

Renowned Irish author Marian Keyes has urged passengers at Dublin Airport to help security staff who are "overworked" and "underpaid" amid ongoing queueing issues.

She went on to suggest the staff is "OVERworked and UNDERpaid" and blasted what she described at "the number of entitled a**holes at Dublin Airport right now, striding away leaving 'someone else' to do it, would make you cry." She then added: "Maybe not actual crude oil etc but they'd left chargers, convertors, laptops and giant bottles of shampoo in the bags and the poor staff was blue in the face from searching."

Another said: "Honestly it’s shocking! I went through last month and stacked about six. And this was at 2.30!"

With dozens of flights canceled, long lines, thousands inconvenienced, high employee absenteeism, the positive rate of testing up 3x and hospitalizations up 4x in just one month, does stacking trays seem like the most pressing issue on which a news outlet might focus?
