The flip side? I’m 40 and have been working at lower level accounting clerk positions for the last 17 years (I have an associates degree), but do have prevous manufacturing experience.

? Bro. I'm 50 and was laid off from Lockheed (engineering) after 17 years. Got a CDL and drive in the oilfield now...you'll love it. You aren't going to die....enjoy....;)

Thanks for the encouragement. Unfortunately an out of state move isn’t possible at this time. Another thing I forgot to mention is that I’m blind in my right eye (since birth) but just had cataract surgery on the other eye and can now see better than I ever remember.
