my step dad is a nucular engineer, worked his way up for years. started out at the nucular power plant as a janitor. they send him to schhool at theyre facility for awhile, bump him up to a better position. I bet hes been there 15 years now. hes pretty high up there now.

but i agree he doesent seem like a real happy love his job kinda person. he cant wait to retire.

He had a few beers when he came home from work one day around 6-8 we'll say. buzz, not wasted. the next afternoon he had another random drug test (many of them weekly) and he had like .1 alcohol in his system, they freaked out! paid vacation for a few weeks, counceling ect.

imagine if you got in real trouble.

when the countrys on basicly any alert at all the entire plant gets surround by guys with giant guns and its like going into a prison trying to geet into work. (if u forget your id, you go home and get it!!)

but hey... pays real good....
