His name is my name.
We moved every 5 years or so, going from job to job, until nuclear basically went offline overnight. Then he owned his own business, working himself to death. When nuclear became a thing again, my brother and I suggested he go back into it - fewer hours, less stress, and there was a gap of people specializing in it, because it had been offline for so long.
I don't know why he specialized in nuclear powerplants....he just oversaw the construction of different pieces of it. No opportunities to pull a Homer and fall asleep during a meltdown.
It's weird, though - back in the 90s, they just halted construction on nuclear plants suddenly. The U.S. had a bunch of half-build reactors (and accompanying infrastructure) just sitting around for 15 years.
