Vogtle during its construction still holds the record for most employment. your job must be pretty secure. I look around and see lots of folks who are unemployed and losing everything they own thanks to 20 plus years of Reagan/republican rule. vogtle is just what this area needs to reverse the double digit unemployment & default on mortgage rates.
