I am in training to be a camera repair tech for the cameras they use during the planned nuclear outages to inspect the welds. The camers are subject to hot water and varying degrees of radiation and my job is to make sure all the B&W and color cameras are ready to use and repair as needed. They are going to a DVD recorder also to record the weld images and have for future backup. I have a lot to learn but a interesting job it is going to be. I guess there is no techers in Memphis I hope to go to a movie this weekend, during the week we work 5 - 12 hr days. Thata it from Memphis for now  |  IP: Logged Mark Gulbrandsen Resident Trollmaster Posts: 16657 From: Music City Registered: Jun 99 posted 12-01-2004 08:41 PM                     Be sure to take in some of the good Bar-B-Que restaurants they have there... and go for a tour of Elvis's Boeing 707 while you're at in town. Not much else to do there unless you're working on a thats film being shot. Mark  |  IP: Logged Paul Mayer Oh get out of it Melvin, before it pulls you under!
