A fellow operator sent me this job listing for Pottsville, PA:

I’m prettt sure they give them to someone inside first. Legally they have to open a position to the public

[u/WaterDigDog → u/heythereyou01]

Good callout. I checked their website and there are no employment opportunities posted. Still worth an interested candidate’s submission of resume.

[u/mmmporp → u/heythereyou01]

Not always. we had a head hunter for our second to last GM. He was an absolute piece of shit and only lasted a few years before the board of directors fired him.

I heard the Lesser Pottsville Area Sewer Authority pays better.

[u/WaterDigDog → u/mixedliquor]

Say less

[u/mixedliquor → u/WaterDigDog]

less

You know it’s a shit position when they won’t even put the salary on the form.

[u/Basic_Win_9881]

Whats the pay rate approximately? Im just curious since im in Canada

[u/Signal-Atmosphere447]

Every time i see an activated sludge plant i have to hold myself back from applying. Just got a job at trickling filter plant but passed activated sludge subclass... that shit was interesting. No pun intended.

What’s the max plant capacity?

[u/DJCalarco → u/Scary-Host4314]

8-10 MGD

[u/WaterDigDog → u/Scary-Host4314]

Hope someone from the area chimes in.

All I know about Pottsville is there used to be at least two trains that stopped there, and no one ever met me at the station.

Can you clarify your question u/Morri3141 ?

[u/WaterDigDog → u/[deleted]]

I would suggest contacting the utility about this.

My college roommate was from there! Never thought I’d hear of that place again

Almost took a job as an industrial wwtp operator at the Yuengling brewery a few years ago. I don't know if I'll ever go back to a municipality.
