Hmm.. I think I reflect that remark!  ;D  Been doing MNS since 84.Well now it is time to get back on the road and see some new facilities.Yupper, I put in for Turkey Point. I guess a 12 year hiatus from the road is long enough.

PS. I hear that clams & lobster are a great source of diet food !

Can't say anything one way or the other about Mcguire. But I can say that Bartlett is direct depositing paychecks, your perdiem will come to the site your working at.

Only worked their S/G shotpeening outage in the 80's. Had a good time and was treated well. Haven't been back but if it is like it was then I would give it a definite thumbs up.

Worked there in spring of 2001 and loved it! My job assignment was RP rover in lower containment for the outage.
Some impressions from what I can remember...
I really enjoyed working with the Duke "Core" techs. They liked to laugh and joke around and were lots of fun.
I found the house personelle to be cooperative and receptive to a questioning attitude and alara suggestions. The craft workers in the field were also very team work oriented in the way they interacted with each other and with RP. Quite rare, I thought, to see everyone working together so well, something I'm personally not used to.
Never been to an outage where everyone seemed to take such a keen interest in keeping up morale and making sure others was happy and enjoying the work.
Never been on an outage where there was this much eating going on either. Wasn't uncommon to order out for both breakfast and lunch every day.
The local area around the plant was very nice. NASCAR country I think. The weather was always great the whole time I was there. The local people seemed as down to earth friendly as I've ever met. The babes per capita ratio was higher than average in the Charlotte area, as I remember, so plenty of nice scenery for the drive home.
For lodging there was a decent place to stay on the other side of the lake with a nice bar and grill.
These are just my impressions from what I remember seeing there. I had a great time and can't think of one bad thing to say about the experience working that outage.
