Age was wrong and I could not change it. I am just about old enough to retire if I had any economic sense my whole life, which I did not. If I made it, I spent it, and then some. Never thought I would live this long! So it's off to work I go, and with a smile on my face. I have had a good life. Just don't have any money left. That does not matter much to me.

Depends, do you have a CDL? I live in West KY and had hardly no wait. What part of IN? I would say guessing 2-4 weeks for background check and orientation date.
