Episode 93: Show Notes

As you all have heard me speak about on the show, I am endeavoring to become a better water treater\xa0each and every\xa0day.\xa0 This includes learning what I don\u2019t know I don\u2019t know.\xa0 This can be a very difficult task when you embark on this journey by yourself.\xa0 That is way I have engaged others to help me. \xa0 I believe that everyone should have a mentor to help them with the above-mentioned task.\xa0 Fortunately for me I have several.\xa0 About 20 years ago I asked\xa0Jay Farmerie, CWT\xa0if he would mentor me.\xa0 Lucky for me, he said yes.\xa0 Because of our relationship, I have someone who is engaged in helping me find my\xa0blind spots\xa0to uncover what I don\u2019t know I don\u2019t know.\xa0 \xa0

On today\u2019s episode I interview Jay about his career and all things water treatment.\xa0 I hope you enjoy our conversation.\xa0
