Palisades raises RP rate $6 to $37.50
« on: Mar 30, 2017, 08:00 »
I was just informed that Palisades raised their rates for RP Techs for the outage $6/hr. No hinky 'bonus', just $6/hr more on your check every week.
  [hitchhiker] <3 [nuke] [clap] [thanks] [Dance]

It's a nice late spring outage, still time to get one more in!

Staffing around April 17, 2017, Breaker 04/23/2017, about 32 days.

Explain that to me.  I am a little slow.  (I saw some one on Facebook say to thank RSCS also.)

The way I see it, Palisades can't staff, so they raise the rate so that they can staff.  No backup (at the same rate) would change that.  If they raise the rate, it would be for all companies, the primary and the backup.

When I spoke with the RPM and Superintendent, they made no mention of a backup influencing this at all.  Simple math, techs won't come, raise the rate, they will come.

The Admiral trained us dummies way back when that didn't have access to all this new fangled fancy counting equipment that if yer part ick u late seems high, place a dollar bill or equivalent tween da probe and sample media. If rate of count dee creases by .5 or so, you may be immersed in an inversion of the temperature. Far as I know that dollar bill don't know the difference tween natty heliums, and dwonze at a Level 1 facility. I guess I perhaps wasn't all that cirrus. Don't gas babies on the Donalds watch.

RSCS does have the backup contract and yes they were offering $38 an hour for 3.1 RPT (this was in March).  I know this for a fact because they called me to take an ALARA position and offered the same to my husband for a Technician position.

I had the same thought until I realized he meant 2He4+++ Ek... or just α.
Makes me wonder if I should check my money for contamination...
