So here's something a bit different for sci, What does this board think about the Navy Nuclear Power Program? Quality of education and it's difficulty are all fair topics to cover.

This doesn't have much to do with IQ so it wont go very far.

>Navy Nuclear Power Program
don't do it. my brother in law is a nuke. he lost 20lbs last deployment because the sub tender that was supposed to deliver them food got delayed by 2 weeks and the whole crew was living off bread and water.
Lucas Richardson
Yeah but what about actually BEING a nuke. life on a sub sucks, price you pay for being on a sub. So what is the job like?

>So what is the job like
mountains of tedious paperwork. anything nuclear is going to have DoE embedded inside of your anus.
they have a saying "if the paperwork doesn't weigh more than the replacement part, you did something wrong".
Isaiah Clark
ask yourself why the Navy is offering hundreds of thousands of dollars in sign up bonuses to do this job.
hint: its not because its so difficult nobody can do it
Charles Jenkins
Nice try, navy recruiter
William King
Definitely would like more info, my brother did this and really wants me to enlist to go as an ET or something. 6 years sounds like a damn long time
Noah Diaz
See this concept confuses the hell out of me, it makes it seem like the there is no point in the nuclear program.
If it's not difficult enough to justify the two year training pipeline why spend the money on that pipeline if it's not really that hard? If the navy is artificially inflating the difficulty to serve as a barrier to entry why have the huge enlistment and reenlistment bonuses?
If the job isn't that hard they're is no need to have the training be as difficult as it is, especially as difficult as it was in the past. If the difficulty is entirely due to poor living conditions and arbitrary gating why spend money on two years of Nuke Tech training?
