He had some issues with the city of Bloomingto earlier this year. He probally got tired of people only staying a month and bailing. I was in one of his pads for over a year. They are very nice.

Ha. Have fun when CS dicks around with your schedule and makes you drive two and from the airport twice in one day. And YES this does happen.

Under what circumstances has this happened to you? Once you are released.... Why would you bother picking up your phone? Let alone the legality of not getting required rest after being released. I spent a good amount of time on reserve and this never once happened

Default Crash pad situation in FAT

I'm a Jetblue guy trying to help my mom out she owns both sides of a duplex where she occupies one side and leases the other. Just wanted to check with those that are Fresno based as to how adequate your crash pad situation is? The property there is currently vacant, close to the airport, and I'm considering converting it into a crash pad. I believe Skywest is the only carrier based there, just curious as to how much you guys are paying and how's the availability of crash pads there? Also are you using cabs to get to/from the airport or getting rides? Thanks guys.

If CS told me to that, I would tell them no. If you did that, it's your own fault.

To all the newbies on here, this place really isn't as bad as a lot of debbie downers and whiners on here make it out to be. Just don't commute to reserve, that is definitely as bad as it can get.

The base has downsized so much that most everybody there is local.

I hear ya. I wish we could just remove all these posts from the neysayers. Or just moderate them like on the SAPA forums.

Or we could just fix some of the reserve issues like we have been promised for the past 7 years. But blocking the Debbie downers is so much easier.
