Post by: UncaBuffalo on Oct 20, 2006, 11:21: There may be plants that have either friendlier techs...or harder working techs...or more competent techs, but for the combination of all three traits, I'll vote for Columbia...

Honorable Mention: Diablo & VC Summer

Post by: Showme T. Money on Oct 21, 2006, 05:18: When was the last time you guys were at VY, alots changed in the last year. They fired one guy and have a couple more under "investigation", then they hired 8 new HP's. Plus you have new management, Guido has now retired and D. Hensel is now in ALARA for Remi retiring.

Post by: wglewallen on Nov 01, 2006, 07:25: I have to say that in all the years that I have been doing RP work Oconee Nuclear Station has the best house tech. These guys and gals are more like family.

Post by: Carolina Jethro on Nov 01, 2006, 07:50: It has been some years since I was at VY but they did have great techs during the late 90's. Fermi was also a place I loved to go to... not for the area but because the techs and management treated me really well there. Lots of old road techs. I enjoyed Brunswick also. Enjoyed most of the plants I went to but these were the best.

Title: Re: WHo has the Best HouseTechs??
Post by: hoghunter on Nov 09, 2006, 12:33: I think ANO has the best. They don't think they are to good. they will get in and work with you. They came from the old school and worked their way up.
Title: Re: WHo has the Best HouseTechs??
Post by: vikingfan on Nov 09, 2006, 07:34: I personally like the house techs at SONGS. even though i have not been there since 92. as for ANO they are good techs most started out as house decon techs and have moved up. gotta give a shout out also to the house guys and gals at brunswick especially the techs that helped out in the spring 05 outage doing the cavity when we only had about 6 deconners to do the cavity they the hp's jumped rigth in and gave us a hand. sorry for getting off subject here.

Post by: hamsamich on Nov 09, 2006, 02:15: I just worked with the houstechs at Cook on nights and man were they some good guys. One of them made me a whole mess of mp3 disks and I didn't even ask for them. Calvert housetechs on nights were way cool. Calvert had their $hit together more so than cook, but all the techs were cool at both plants. Pilgrim housetechs were pretty good too on nights.
Title: Re: WHo has the Best HouseTechs??
Post by: hoghunter on Nov 10, 2006, 06:54: When I was AT Pilgrim, Contactors couldn't use the plant restrooms. I still say the best techs. is between ANO and Seabrook, They are a good bunch of guys. They treat you like a person and will help you work or just be a friend.

Post by: tigger on Nov 12, 2006, 12:20: I really enjoyed the people that I worked with at St. Lucy and Turkey Point. I had a blast with both the house techs and the contractors. Everyone was very helpful when needed, if concerns were expressed, they listened, and they liked to joke around and have a good time, while getting the job done.
