1st Outage-New to Nuke prep List
This covers the basics- if there is anything I may be missing let me know so the newbies getting in have everything they need beforehand. Of course this is a whole new world so it is impossible to add everything you will need to know along the way but this should be most of the upfront info needed. Considering making a video at the plant I am currently working at as RP to showcase a lot of the similar visuals you will see during an outage. If this is something you would find of value let me know and I will post it in here.

@Lyndsey Kratzner Thanks Lyndsey. I have been able to get away with pretty casual attire at most plants and my own personal scrubs however I have been to constellation, dominion, FPL, Xcel Energy, Columbia plants and they always have scrubs (Cool Tech) always available. Watts Bar must be very old school in a lot of regards. The old school plants usually have the best work environments to be apart of from what I have experienced.
Anyone doing the full Duke run?
Unless something odd happens, it sounds like I’ll be doing the full Duke run starting September 5th. If anyone else is doing this and looking for a roommate to save some money, message me or comment on this post!

I have zero clue if you guys do this but make sure when you do your drug test you are clear of THC/CBD products as you will be banned for years if they see it in your system. Side note- if you guys let me know the per diem rate for the Duke run per outage I can work fast and hard to secure the best grid stays for you guys to help save your per diem and get you extra accommodation perks- this will also allow me to grow the premium membership and platform as well. 😁

Testing
Good-morning everyone, I am at a complete standstill. I think it has gotten very busy. I still have not took my test but I am going to take it at another site. For NISP training, I will still have to do that through Sharon. I’m not having much hope of having work this fall. Are recruiters currently still looking for decon until I get all my testing done ?

One of my friends just got notified yesterday he has been accepted to run the Duke circuit as decon. You have a chance so long as it’s before late August. @Matloc Mosher
