Schultz electric has HP's on staff. One I worked with though had no idea that where you smeared and had high counts was what you should concentrate on in decon efforts. Just a mess of smears.

that's okay, I had one nub convinced that's why there are "no fly zones" around nuke stations,...

I wonder from time time to time if she ever figured out I was only funnin',...

This guy tried sticking it to me because they were calibrating a scram discharge volume instrument about 4 feet off the ground and I walked across a platform 25 feet above it.
I told him he should start posting the 5 floors above the SDV and maybe consider the two floors below it too since by his theory contamination should fall downwards too. He actually started doing this when a senior tech saw what he was doing and commenced ripping his head off.

LOTS of travel, mediocre wages, next to meaningless for ANSI 3.1 time counting (6 months max),...

so,...

if you're already established and just looking for a paying gig with zero to low risk for screwing up,...

it's a great gig,....

if you're entry level?!?!?!

it's a dead end after six months,...

then again, most anything outside the shipyards, power plants and DOE/DOD are dead ends after six months for the aspiring rad health professional or semi-pro,...

as to universities?!?!?!?

that's a different game, and a different career trajectory,...

very different,...

but not for the first six months, same old same old up to that point,...

Air Separation Units seem to be biting if you have nuclear experience or training. Particularly if you have any knowledge of remote operation.
