ok so looking to get out of my current plant.. Mainly because our insurance sucks and i have 2 little kids so this paying Mostly out of my pocket is getting old, along with management!!!

Is any plant around Texas hiring? hell i will even relocate, move out of texas or whatever. Been looking at Nuclear plants and it looks great, they dont mind training on the job or anything but i have no experience in that type of plat.

im still young only 26. Been a operator at this current plant for 4 years, have 5 years of operator experience(dont have a process degree).

I have a resume i can shoot out to somebody.

I have been apply with no luck. I will do chemical,nuclear, pipeline,whatever.

So any help is appreciated. Help a fellow car guy out lol..

Thanks guys

 

My brothers place is always hiring. They pay the highest in Houston but it's a batch process and hard work, Lubrizol. They go through Go Johnson.

They have good benefits too. I work at a pipeline, you wouldn't like the pay compared to working at a Refinery or Chemical plant.

 

I work at a batch plant now. Its not bad just a bunch of running around if your the bottom man lol.

 

My brother has been at Lubrizol for over 10 years. If you like being forced to work 700-1,000 hrs of OT and mid 40's an hour then it's all you. They go through people like I go through toilet paper.

 

Enterprise Products is always hiring were continuous and we top out around 42hr. Benefits and retirement is great and LPG is a pretty clean process

 

Why are they always hiring? That top out is about 6 more than ours. My next move is Controller.

 

90% of their new hires are for new positions their expanding all the time and they replace the ppl who are retiring

 

Larry I applied for enterprise a few monthes ago. Seems like its hard to get in for some reason. Shoot me a pm im very interested. I heard they are expanding nicely and its a great place to work..

Thanks man for all the info!!!!

 

They're getting in on our Crude. We've had a few leave that were high up in our company go to Enterprise. Probably because they actually pay what good employees are worth.

 

Try their web site they hire directly from there now the third party they were using were hiring their husbands lol. It took me like 9 months to get on I came from a batch plant as we'll so I understand and I will never do that again after working here.

 

Their getting pretty big now my unit exports more c3 than anyone else in the world thank to our new unit. We've been doing so much lately the price dropped so we switched to c4 haha

Sounds like my ideal job, where do I sign up, that's exactly what my OT looks like for this year

They also recruit for other plants besides Lubrizol.

Just finish up my basics and got into the ptech degree can anybody share their day to day basis on what you guys do most difficult thing, any days you guys just wandering around the plant?

 

They way it's looking is the have contracts already for Another 4 fractionation units, I work at the ship channel unit and we've had construction since last year and it's lasting till 2016 but I don't see it ever stopping as long as theirs money to be made.

 

It just depends in the type of plant/unit. I worked at a batch plant were you do everything from clean the controll room, dump 47 55lbs bags in a reactor in a 105* room in a chemical suite, and also run the board, then run out side and do a filter change. To where I'm at now where the outside guy spends a total of a hour out side issuing permits then inside monitoring his levels. And the board man wears flip flops to work and runs the unit. As long as everything works the way it should ie: CV, LV, instrumentation it should be a easy job. But dealing with dirty product, you tend to have issues with all that.
