    I’m only an assistant so don’t currently have my grade 1 operator license yet. Our plant has a capacity of 3mgd, but we average 1-1.5mgd on a daily basis. But I’ve just learned from our line crews that in our little area they deal with I&I a lot. So this past week we went thru a big rain fall for 4 days straight and our plant was getting into the 4-5mgd range everyday. Thankfully we were able to stop any accidents from happening.......other plants, not so much

    I'm doing alright. The facility as a whole is down to essential production staff only. All the people that work in an office or cubicle are working at home. Only people there are the ones needed to make live TV and keep the network going.

    I couldn't tell you about the MJ documentary cuz idk lol.

    You can tell them yourself on the website or wherever you want IDC. I don't tell them what to say while on the air.

    I make the studios look pretty and make sure you can see them talking. :D

    I did. They didn’t listen. Ratings have been in the tank since.
    Hopefully you can get that same gig on an up-and-coming sitcom and it makes you rich as possible!!!

    I've been here for over 15 years... It's a pretty sweet gig.

    I don't want to work on sitcoms anyways. I enjoy making live television instead of filming actors on a soundstage and then sending it back to an edit house.

    There is no "take 2" when its live.
