More options than just commercial jobs

[kevndale]

Choosing to go commercial is like not graduating from junior high? I look at it as viewing all kinds of different options for my high school and then choosing the one that offers the best overall package. Maybe commercial nuclear power has a crappy high school that I dont want to go too.

Uh no Southern Utility is paying 140K in salary to any SRO let alone a 2 year one. Total compensation might come to 140K but about 40 to 50K of that can go away at the utilities discretion.

LOL.  Maybe a SENIOR OSM....maybe.  Southern sites have a lower cost of living than say the Cali or some of the Northeast sites so the straight salary numbers aren't as high BUT those dollars go a lot further.  140K at Farley would probably make you the mayor of Dothan.

Maybe I'm in the dark on new SRO salaries, but that sounds a little high.  People need to be a little more realistic and genuine.  Regardless, the South/Southeast is still where it's at in my opinion.  Good people.  Good cost of living.
