GLAD TO HERE INFORMATION ABOUT SRS.i don't quite understand negative attitude these companies are are enforcing.this area if they are who they professes to be contains God fearing ,Bible thumping believers.Now if you are just goning to church on sunday and raising hell m-s.question youseself. If they need help and refuse to hire people on their own misguided concept of what they want their supplemental staff to look like or be like they'll be in for a rude awakening in HEAVEN.(IF THEY OR ME MAKES IT) wE can only pray that their eyes ,ears and minds will be opened.something wrong with that picture and you desire chaos in youse life.just burnt grass not around long enough for d drama. oops ;) ;) ;)

R-G,
We can only "Hope" for "Change" in September. Many of SRS personnel are being asked to submit a resume for the site restructure. As to the relationship, I have it on very good authority. :-X "B" still has no ACTceptable (sic) bid in for the ARRA projects. :o The plantation remains the same and 'my daddy's, daddy' hiring will remain as long as WSRC suppresses the wages. 8)

Hello Folks, I have said it before and now I am saying it again. DO NOT COME TO WORK AT THIS SITE UNDER ACTS!!!!! Sign a work agreement with NORAMTEC or any other company but never with ACTS. Once again they are proving that they only exist is screw the techs who work for them. A couple of buddies of mine completed their 6 month work agreements and then went with NORAMTEC to take advantage of the higher pay and better bennies. Now ACTS is tellling them that they will not pay them their vacation pay which was due to them at the completion of their work agreement. It is even written in black and white on the signed paper. I think that the Dept. of Labor will be getting a couple of calls about this latest act od "dirty pool" from this sewage pond of a company.
I must also add that they also screw the engineers, work planner, instructors and all other innocent folks who sign on with them to work at SRS. I talked with one fella about a year ago who lived 76 miles away from SRS and ACTS REFUSED to pay him per diem because they said that they only pay if you lived 100 or more miles away. What a cold hearted company!!!! I feel sorry for Sheila, I think she is actually an innocent bystander in this mess. She has always been my favorite person to talk to in the office. Wishing you the best Sheila.
I think it is time everybody gangs together and just plain boycotts this company. BetaAnt you have my support too.

1) If you want to apply for a permanent position at SRS, all external postings go through the South Carolina State employment agency. All state employment agencies have computers that will access agencies out of state. If you want to work at SRS, do what I did. Get off your duff and go down to the state agency on a weekly basis to see when the job opens up.
2) SRS is slow on stimulus programs. D&D is going s-l-o-w. This last Thursday they just came out with an organizational chart for D$D work. The Sec. of Energy has visited the site recently as well as our Senators. SRS is attempting to get even more money. My supervisor expects things to be in full swing by September. Planning is hit or miss at SRS. I have seen great planning and engineers that needed to be fired. Last week they decided to replace the decon shower. The planning has been going on for over 6 months. Ther first thing they do is to shut a valve to isolate the shower. As it turns out that valve also isolates the shower they were going to use as a back up for the decon shower. The engineer over the job finally showed up (first time at job site). No one had walked the system down. It makes things interesting.
3) Everyone I know who have worked for ACTS, wished they didn't. The one time I went to apply with them, I was so disgusted with the people who operated the place, I wouldn't even submit through them.
4) I have worked for Dennis Trout (VAS) before. I would rate him above ACTS.
5) ACTS is feeling the pinch. They have a sign outside that reads, "Preferred contractor since 2001."
6) Housing is available everywhere. The Aiken Standard had a full page of apartment rentals.

The sign should read "SRS MONOPOLY SINCE 2001-THE BEST MONEY CAN BUY" :P
