On today\\u2019s Pinks and Blues episode we will be answering the following questions:

  1. What is the small blue pill in the bottom of a legionella sample bottle?
  2. I have a large territory that requires me to travel. On many days I find myself traveling back to accounts that are in the beginning of my route to check items I did a day or two before. What can I do to reduce that?
  3. Do I still need to come to AWT technical training since they stopped administering the test after those functions?

Quotes:

\\u201cMost people gain speed as a service technician as leaving things out. Folks! That is not what your job is. Your job is to make sure that you\\u2019re ensuring that that water treatment system is the best it could be at that moment in time because you are there.\\u201d - Trace Blackmore

\\u201cYou get faster by getting better at the things you need to do.\\u201d - Trace Blackmore

\\u201cGet to the point where you can run your tests as fast as you can and still be accurate.\\u201d - Trace Blackmore

"Come\\xa0 to technical training, it\\u2019s the best training that\\u2019s out there for water treatment. And because of that it\\u2019s going to give you some extra confidence to go home and take the CWT designation." - Trace Blackmore

Advice: Work backwards from their goal! - Trace Blackmore
