We operate 24 hours a day, so your schedule may vary. Team members often work weekends and holidays. The role is physical; you should be prepared to be on your feet for the entire shift. Here are the minimum qualifications:

• Be 21 years of age or older
• Have a valid driver’s license with proof of insurance and the ability to obtain other licensures as required by state law
