Best experience working at ACP: My best experience working at ACP is that I got to meet very amazing and kind people whilst getting to see what ACP is about.

Worst part of working at ACP: Josephine Haha

Do you think ACP is an interesting place to work? Yes, I definitely think ACP is an interesting place to work in a good way because of how I got to see how we do cargo and adjust things before we confirm them so they can be put on planes.
