Nah. Came from a company that built and repaired rotating equipment. Steam turbines, gas turbines, compressors, pumps. Got hired at the power plant when construction first started. So was there from construction, commissioning, start-up, and going commercial. I know where all the dead bodies are buried at.
Know all the short cuts that was taken to get the plant up and running.
I was number 1 on the seniority list. I retired as senior control room operator at the age of 60. I've had my share of coal plants. Repairing equipment in them. Coal dust everywhere. Been in nuke plants too. Don't like glowing in the dark.
I see you're not too far away from our sister plant in Beverly Ohio. You at the AEP plant?
