I was an electrician but got in a nasty car wreck 40 years ago and was almost killed. I was told that they gave me Last Rights in the hospital. I fooled them and lived. After a two year recovery, I couldn’t go back to being an electrician because of the injuries so I got a factory job. I worked in maintenance. Did electrical, carpentry, mill wright, painting, snow shoveling, welding, maintaining the car fleet, about anything in the plant that needed done. It was a job that was never boring. Retired 11 years ago when I was 62.
My name ain't Keith

Nuclear contractor. I wear a few different hats in the nuclear field. Mostly, I test safety valves/systems and work with engineering to troubleshoot and fix valve related issues. I'm coming up on the 20 year mark in that field.

Spent the last 30 years in the Millwrights I have 580 work hours left until I can retire Also have a 16 year old daughter that I'd like to get through high school before I retire. But I don't know if my back is going to let me have that option
