BRUSHWOLF:
Good place to work. Plant people are the best. BNI long turmers are snobish & un helpfull to newbees.
Site cord ,M. Palmer is the best. May be the best BNI site cord I have ever worked with. He went out of his way to help many techs. I would work any job with Mr. M. Palmer, any where. Also like to add house supervisor Mike Springer, fantastic supervisor. T. Smith
klsas:
I apologize to anyone who thought I was being a snob. Technically, my first couple of outages at Callaway were with ARC and not BNI, so maybe Brushwolf's comment wasn't directed at me.
I do enjoy working Callaway. It is a clean low dose, low contam plant for the most part. A large majority of the people employed at Callaway are so laid back that you have to check their pulse every once in a while. There must be something in the water in Missouri. I have always had great crews to work with which makes it even easier to keep going back. Only two things keep Callaway from being a great place to work; 1. It isn't in Tennessee and 2. the access roads (O, CC, 94) were put down by a drunk construction crew. Night life in Fulton can't be beat.

Thats not just Callaway doing the early lay-offs, seems to be a industry standard now. I remember the "old days" when they'ld keep you around till the plant was up and running and all the decon and free release of tools and equipment was done. I don't understand the economics of it, but I guess thats why I'm not in management, I'm too realistic with logistics of getting a job done.

I visited there during the Feb 04 exam cycle. Loved the area and really enjoyed my stay in Jefferson City. Hate the drive though.... I like to be closer to the plant when she blows (off steam) :P

This thread dead? I am trying to hire on out there as a house HP tech and was hoping to find some ideas of the current culture in the HP group.
