Let this be a lesson to all you new ATCs out there.
On the ATC headset, there is a little circle on the lower unit, with a slot in it. Use a small flathead screwdriver and turn that slot so that the pickle doesn't lock.

Only thing this pilot should of been retrained on is how to operate his mic.

Well thats what 121.5 is for. Oh, wait, it seems most pilots think its to coordinate a ride to the hotel from the airport (as heard on gaurd yesterday).
