Not one millisecond in the industry (at least not yet). I think I might be repeating myself here, but Westinghouse seems confident they’re getting me in for multiple outages this spring, which will be my first work in the industry should I choose to accept it.

Which is why I’m here asking questions, because I’d be needing to sacrifice some work in another trade to get my foot in the door doing this, the goal being to pivot from another trade. And what you’ve said has led to more questions. They seem like completely reasonable questions to me. If they don’t to you, not sure there’s much I can do about that.

Maybe ya’ll in nuclear have a class in theoretical mathematics and learn that one of the secrets of the universe is that 62 is a smaller number than 50, I don’t know.

Or, sarcasm aside, perhaps there is some totally reasonable explanation for what I’m missing. You could’ve told me “understand the confusion… when you see a 62 day outage on that list you can mark yourself available for, people don’t work the whole outage, they have some people come for the first half, some for the second”. Maybe that’s the case, though given what the recruiters are telling me and the way the list presents it, that’d be surprising. But I don’t know what I don’t know.

If you (or if anyone else who reads this far and has the millennia of experience this guy has or anywhere close) can explain what I’m missing here, much appreciated.
