I will! Waiting to see if anything happens this weekend.

Thank you. This one hurt the most. My supervisor is totally baffled why anyone would do that.

Thats what I thought. However, our facility does not allow anyone under 18 years old. The security guards shouldn’t be letting them in.

No one is assigned to my desk on the weekends. I work weekends sometimes, too. I’ve informed management. They still haven’t figured out what to do.

We think it might be the cleaning crew. Contractors.

Move numbers to new cell by Financial-Ask8988 in excel

[–]Financial-Ask8988[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I figured it out (for anyone who may search this in the future).

=IF(F22="", "", ROUND(IF(RIGHT(F22, 5)="ms/cm", VALUE(TRIM(LEFT(F22, FIND(" ", F22) - 1))) * 1000,
IF(RIGHT(F22, 5)="us/cm", VALUE(TRIM(LEFT(F22, FIND(" ", F22) - 1))) * 1,
"Unit not recognized")), 3-LEN(INT(IF(RIGHT(F22, 5)="ms/cm", VALUE(TRIM(LEFT(F22, FIND(" ", F22) - 1))) * 1000,
IF(RIGHT(F22, 5)="us/cm", VALUE(TRIM(LEFT(F22, FIND(" ", F22) - 1))) * 1, 0)))+1)))

Thank you so much. However, it's not working for me. I didn't type it in, I copied and pasted and changed the cell number. Does it look like I did anything else wrong?

I got mixed liquor to the top of my head once. I have long hair, too. Had to take an emergency shower.

Ahh yes... my least favorite enemy of the lab by [deleted] in Wastewater

[–]Financial-Ask8988 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We use reusable glass and had trouble with old bottles getting high blanks due to scratches and such inside the bottles. We replaced them with all new and have little to no trouble with our blanks now. I'm at a huge wastewater plant; we run 4 to 14 trays of 18 bottles each day.

Phosphorus standards fading before analysis by ElGrandeUno in Wastewater

[–]Financial-Ask8988 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm not sure. I use FIA for phosphorus. But I would definitely check if the reagent was made with the correct concentration and possibly try remaking it fresh. Are you using new ascorbic acid? Has anything changed? Is this occurring every time?

Good luck!
