Justin,
Don't let ANYONE here talk you out of a job opportunity that you feel you're qualified to perform. In the long run, the Opinions here are just opinions, though many are made with a vast amount of experience.
If you get a job offer as an SRO and it's a good offer in an area in which you're willing to live then by all means take it. You can get plenty of technical help here and there are a couple very successful SROs who post on this board who can help you. Technically it doesn't matter which type of reactor you choose as there are a couple cross licensed or soon to be cross licensed SROs here. Remember, having the SRO License gives you a LOT more flexibility should you decide to leave because with that license you've pretty much proved you can do anything, provided you've actually utilized said license.
It comes down to what you want. I can see you're much like Jason and Chief Rob, willing to take input graciously and willing to ask for it. Most likely you'd do well no matter WHAT avenue you take. Experience shows the best SROs are those who either grew up at a plant or were successful at other utilities. That doesn't mean you cannot get a license, M1Ark will tell you guys at his utility got them right out of the Navy. What matters is how you act when you get it. If you try Navy "Leadership" with a bunch of Non Licensed Operators.... Well you'll get EXACTLY what you ask for and when something goes wrong you'll tell EXACTLY what you told them to do. If you get the license, and you're willing to accept input, admit when you are wrong, and treat those around you with respect you'll do ok.
Just do what's right for you, not what we think is right for you or what we you think we think is right for you. Either way I think you'll do fine.
Mike
