What is the longest length of time between outages at a plant for a worker?

Now a different answer cause It's how I read the question  ;)

Toronto Powers Pickering B holds the world record for the longest non-stop operation of a nuclear reactor – 894 days.

That is how I originally interpreted the question until I read the originator's post. I was pretty sure that a Candu reactor would hold the record due to the unique method of refueling.

Surry, worked there in 1980 and returned in 2010. 30 years.

Worked Oyster Creek last time in 1977 and just finished their outage 2010
33 years apart, same drywell control point but had a much better time this outage.

Hmmmmm... Peach Bottom - left October 1979 (after three years of continuous service) then returned September 2009 for an outage.  About 30 years I guess....and no discernable difference.
