The new weekly work hours and how do they effect road techs?
pronukeroadtech:
Palo Verde says they are doing a rolling 4-12 hour day schedule, 4 on and 1 off so your day off is different and your weekly pay changes. Is it different else where or has our work week OT been cut everywhere? Other work groups work 7-12's if they want. Why is it always the HP/Decon departments that get our hours cut?
let-it-ride:
I think the reason is because the other crafts are UNION Workers. The HP/RCT people have no clout!! If HP's talk about holding out, they are gone and easily replaced by someone willing to do whatever they are told to have a job.
Remember the site coordinator that took a job as a Jr. HP??
Nothing will ever change. HP's/RCT's will go to a job no matter what. They will take whatever is offered, no matter how it brings them down.
But HEY, Always remember, "Hide and Seek for a Grand a Week". 8)

The Rule will have widespread effect throughout the industry. The rule was intended to force utiltities to become less dependent on contingent workers and overtime. More hiring of house folks to force down OT and fatigue.
Less whining...look at the big picture. If you have never been to college and have been making >$100K taking smears on OT you need to look around. 1/8 of the nation is unemployed...capable, well-educated people around the world are seeking work here. The 6x12, per diem earning, 3-in-3-out frisker holder has seen his day. Nukes are staffing up, growing their own, sharing resources, and deploying technology. The future is here, and Bubba Breakroom is history.
