Dickies at Work The Power-Plant

Probably the most adventurous job I’ve ever had was engineer work at the coal-burning power plant. You have to look at pictures just to understand the sheer mind-boggling scale of it. The boilers themselves stand some thirty stories high and the smokestack qualifies as a small skyscraper. As you work here, you feel yourself become an ant crawling through the guts of a car engine. If you have a phobia, a coal-burning power plant will challenge it. Heights: the decking on most floors is a grating... Read more »

Dickies at Work The Conservation Corps

It was peacetime (shows how long ago this was?) and doing National Guard just to say you did it seemed kind of a mediocre choice. Join the Peace Corps and do a stint in another country? Maybe, but that seemed like a slightly deeper commitment, and anyway what if I didn’t like the politics? I ended up midway between and went... Read more »
