Well, if it weren't for my insane capacity for aggravation and overwhelming urge to relieve the innocents of their ignorance - and my ability to multi-task like a mofo - I wouldn't have time.
Sadly for all, I can fit this in...:rolleyes:

Obviously I haven't posted here much and I post less anywhere else. Can't remember the last time I was on failbook. I have a new job and I'm in the field most of the time and the work computers are locked down (internet sucks there anyway).
So yeah, less drama = less drama. Internet is full of it lol
I got an offer I couldn't refuse at Y12 National Security Complex (AKA nuclear weapons plant) It's a fascinating place in many ways. unfortunately I can't say much more.

Quote:
Y-12's primary missions since the end of the Cold War have been to support defense needs through stockpile stewardship, assist on issues of nuclear non-proliferation, support the Naval Reactors program, and provide expertise to other federal agencies.[10] Y-12 is also responsible for the maintenance and production of all uranium parts for every nuclear weapon in the United States arsenal. Y-12 is responsible for the production and maintenance of the "secondary" aspect of thermonuclear devices.
Y-12 has a history of providing secure storage of nuclear material for both the United States and other governments. Early efforts focused on securing material from the former Soviet Union;[11] recent activities have included recovery of highly enriched uranium from Chile.[12]
Environmental cleanup has been an ongoing issue for the Department of Energy in Oak Ridge. The Y-12 plant was listed as an EPA Superfund site in the 1990s for groundwater and soil contamination. Today, the Y-12 plant is listed on the DOE's Cleanup Criteria/Decision Document Database (or C2D2 database).[13]
An influx of funding from the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act benefited cleanup efforts by funding demolition and decontamination of aging facilities.[14] These efforts work to further the long term reduction in the size of the Y-12 facility.[15]
CNS Y-12 currently[when?] employs approximately 4,700 people. About 1,500 additional personnel work onsite as employees of organizations that include UT-Battelle, Science Applications International Corporation, Bechtel Jacobs, and WSI Oak Ridge (an American-controlled unit of G4S Secure Solutions), which holds the security contract for the site.
typical BAWC thread, off topic :lo5l:
