My buddy said there was a glitch from eventbrite. Should be back in the game.

As of this morning, the first session (0900) is still open and the second has a waitlist. How the heck I'm gonna get from NJ across Manhattan to JB HQ by 0900 is a mystery to me!

Signed up for the morning session today. Guess I will drive down the night before (six hour drive). Is there a decent hotel nearby?

Edit: I'm also recovering from shoulder surgery and will still have limited use of my right arm by then, too weird? Should I pass?

I did it back in 2013. Took NJ transit to Penn station and then subway. Only hard part was parking is tight during morning commute so plan a few extra minutes to find/pay for parking. Beats fighting your way across the bridges. Others came in the night before but from NJ it's pretty simple on public transportation.

You could leave earlier and pretend you want the job...
