"CQ, CQ". . . My Last Transmission (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781504925426)

The working world of air traffic controllers is filled with extreme pressure and stress, and for women controllers, sexual harassment. It is an atmosphere author Samantha Sims was caught in during her more than twenty years as an air traffic controller at an air route traffic control center in Miami, Florida, from 1990 to 2014. In "CQ, CQ" ... My Last Transmission, she tells her story. From her growing up years being bullied, to serving in the Navy, to her twenty-year career with the FAA, this memoir narrates Sims' life story. She tells how she could no longer endure the pervasive abuse handed out by male controllers and how she decided to stand up to the bullies and blow the whistle about what was happening on the job. "CQ, CQ" ... My Last Transmission discusses how Sims survived the toxic environment to get her story out in the open. When the nondisclosure clause was missing from her out-of-court settlement with the FAA, she forced the secrets to be divulged. She shares her journal so others still caught in the system can get the relief they deserve.
