Homer Simpson

The point is thta cartoons don't have to follow realism or logic. There's no way Homer Simpson would keep a job like that for long. Assuming he'd get it in the first place.

I think that's probably the point. I do seem to remember various characters' "WTF?!" reactions to learning Homer's job as safety officer at a nuclear plant.

Ok, that makes sense. Thanks, Stimbo!

I'm pretty sure there's an entire episode explaining this whole situation. It pokes fun at the fact that homer is given such a huge responsibility, if I recall correctly he puts the entire plant into nuclear meltdown.

Wasn't there one - maybe the same one - in which he does the same thing in a training simulator, which doesn't even have any nuclear material in it?

My job is nowhere near as important.

Homer probably got his through nepotism.


Just something to make all of you who live near a nuclear power plant sleep a little better.

Yeah, I think there was a guy that's more like a normal person, and goes on a tangent about how he worked hard for nothing, while Homer did nothing of significance yet has a good life.
