MY DAY
Research and troubleshooting
When a problem comes up that I can't figure out, I read the manual for that piece of equipment and do some troubleshooting.
I'm constantly taking numbers down and reporting what happens during my shift so the next shift knows what happened.
I do averages and titrations* but the science is pretty basic in my job because the engineers take care of the technical side of things. However, they're willing to share information if I want to learn.
*Note: Titration is a method of combining liquids for chemical analysis.
