Team Newark
Just got the call from manpower planning and it looks like i am joining team newark. Looking for any advice on crashpads, preferably one that i won't get shot at everytime i go outside if that's possible. Also wondering how much flying i should be able to get while on reserve. Any how should be out there in about two to three weeks. I am starting OE in Cleveland on monday the 24th. Thanks for the advice!

I hear a hotel has a crashpad for 185 a month and 24 van service forgot the name but someone will have it for you soon. In Newark you won't sit reserve at all i had very few days that they did not call me and you can always pick up something in the aggresive pick up window. As far as getting shot your on your own keep your head down thats all i can say.
