lol, I wanted Indy. Got selected for Indy Center. And yes, they are kind of hurting for people. My dad works at Indy center and his area has 5 people eligible to retire in the next 2 years and only 2 trainees...

Be careful what you wish for. May be better starting off at a lower facility and then going up. That's what the rep from ZKC told us on our tour. They think it's a shame to take people off the street and throw them in a level 11 or 12 facility. Pretty high dropout rate. Just FYI...
