Thanks

most people end up staying in goodyear which is about a 45 minute drive to the plant. you might be able to find housing in tonopah 5 min to the plant or even buckeye about 30 min to plant. but if you want any shopping center etc you will end up in goodyear anyhow. buckeye does have a wally world but thats about it. can you mop floors ? hang lead blankets ? clean up contaminated tools ? then your probably in good shape.

good luck !

Why, someone who removes cones, of course! How hard was that to figure out? Sheesh!  :P

If I had a degree in nuclear power plant operations I would go for an operations position, such as nuclear plant equipment operator by looking all over the USA and increase one's chances for the first job.

What a bunch of heathens; it is obviously southern slang for someone who performs the role of a deacon in a church..a "deconer".

Naaah, it's prolly just one of them there foreign soccer fanboys of Deco from Brazil, hence they are "Deco-ners"   :P
