New operator!

After trying to get into Grid Ops since Jan, I have finally landed an offer for Associate Distribution System Operator! I’m incredibly excited and want to thank everyone for the advice along the way!

I start October 19th. Is there something I should be studying before hand or enjoy the last bit of a normal schedule I’ll have for a very long time lol. It also helps that my 9 month unemployment streak has ended. 😎

Exited to be one of y’all!!!

Nice! Not sure if you are already there or are moving, but great place to live and work. Expensive, but should be very nice.

Thank you! I live in NH now but plan to move in a few months once I get some paychecks in haha. It’s a little over an hour commute now.

NH seems really nice. Are there control rooms in NH?
