Hello everyone,

I want to apply for a wastewater treatment trainee position in California, however, after finding more information about the job process, I find out that my red-green color blind (mild) will likely impact my chance of getting hire due to job functioning like SCADA system. Does anyone here know if I should continue applying or stop to find another opportunity?

Thanks so much!

Where do people purchase distilled water from? Our local grocery store is going out of business. We’ve used the same brand for the last 30 years. Will I see a difference in results by switching water?

Thanks

Graduating with my BS in biochemistry from ucla this June, plan to take the Water Quality Laboratory Analyst Certification this March.

Genuinely how should I market myself, where to look if I have the desire to work in the Inland empire/ SoCal region. I have several lab experience and environmental research from my coastal marine research lab and analytical coursework of the 9 required gen chem/ochem/biochem lab courses I needed for my degree.

I respect everyone who started blue collar and climbed up, but what do I do to break in with my degree and what specific companies would you recommend?

I've been in wastewater for about a year now as an operator with experience working in industrial settings before this. I see a lot of piping and equipment rusting and paint flaking off from the corrosive exposures. Do you have a corrosion control practice you prefer? What is your general approach to addressing existing corrosion with respect to replacement and resurfacing?
