Still waiting for my fair share of sexual harassment , seems as if some girls have all the luck.

If you can't handle this at the lowest level and feel the need to get the company and courts involved you have much bigger issues to deal with, there isn't ever going to be a resolution. Grow up, put on your big girl dress and stop thinking you have to be offended all the time.
Anyone doing this on a regular basis is going to get what they deserve on a legal or extra-legal basis. As are those making up stories for profit. Especially those making up stories for profit.

Remember kiddies, whether you know it or not, the first person to use the word racist or sexist in a conversation is guilty of the very crime they pretend to have discovered.

Knock it off bra, you are harshing the interwebz, secret recordings, this is F/I grade stuff, come on, legal advice online, it simply doesn't get any better than this!

At a former employer, when training was conducted in the plane, a guy had a bad experience and wanted the CVR pulled over what the examiner said. The cost of doing such pressed into the 5 figures I believe.

And I KNOW, that can be a A LOT cheaper than a lawsuit. But make no mistake, a corporation is going to give it a full court press to stop it in tracks/nip it in bid if they can to save money.

In the case of sexual harassment, they will most likely lose the lawsuit if the refuse to pull the CVR.

1 party consent 37 states and the Federal Government

2 party consent 13 states.

All has to do with admissibility so more important is the location which you would file suit

source asked the wife lawyer/former federal prosecutor

As anyone in the mil has learned over the last 10 years lead your life like anyone is listening and you will be fine

Agreed. But that doesn't mean they'll do EVERYTHING they can to STOP it from getting to that point.

Also has to do with criminal laws, which would apply in the state in which the recording took place. If you're in cruise flight, not sure if federal law would supersede state law (federal is one-party consent). But then you have the PED law to worry about.

BINGO!

Another good "test" for appropriate conversation in the workplace: Ask yourself if you'd want your daughter's boss to say the same things to her. If not, don't say it.

Right, just act like you have some manners,don't act like you are some breed of vermin or you will get treated as such.

At the same time, understand that vermin exist on both sides of the equation.
