The Traffic Supervisor At Jfk

Today, when security is not just an empty buzzword, those who work in the security field are often overlooked as important contributors to the safety and security of those they are hired to protect. In Michael Fayia Kallon's The Traffic Supervisor At JFK, he sheds considerable light on the plight of security officers, in particular, at JFK, the country's largest international airport. Not only are these officers underpaid, they are also subjected on a regular basis to the taunts and angry outbursts of a prejudiced, belligerent supervisor who denies them breaks for meals and restroom use.

There is, to be sure, some humor involved in some of the incidents, and the repetition of daily activities gives the reader a realistic look at the problems of not only hiring supervisors with no cognitive skills but also not paying attention to officers who have serious complaints about their supervisors. In either case, the welfare, safety, and security of everyone in their sphere of influence is jeopardized.
