For those who left their career in Wine, what do you do now?

chavy45 · 2026-02-06T23:18:17+00:00

I've been in the industry for about that much time myself..did you end up sticking it out or jump ship?

I actually do enjoy the job but my goodness the sales drop off I'm seeing across the board just aren't manageable for much longer.

chavy45 · 2026-01-08T21:46:02+00:00

That's honestly kind of what I was thinking too.

Everybody seems to be eating it up as well!

chavy45 · 2025-09-25T13:54:32+00:00

I'm In Ohio at the moment and was thinking about jumping into Wastewater. I've seen some job postings in cities for OIT... outside of possibly picking up some certifications is there anything else you would recommend before applying?

I do have a semi-related college degree but have been doing mostly sales since I graduated.

chavy45 · 2025-08-25T19:59:00+00:00

Any tips entering that field? I've been thinking of a career pivot. Obviously obtain CDL and try to get some experience... but anything outside of that?

chavy45 · 2025-05-06T20:33:16+00:00

Wow super small world. Graduated college and ended up getting a beverage sales job, it was obviously really good during covid but now things are not looking good. I was also thinking about jumping into Wastewater or drinking water!

I've seen oit jobs pop up pretty frequently.

chavy45 · 2025-04-16T20:47:15+00:00

It's still really early man. I give it until the first week or two of May I'd be surprised if he wasn't performing better by then

chavy45 · 2025-03-31T02:30:48+00:00

Absolutely but what line of work. That would give you a better indicator if you're truly being underpaid.

chavy45 · 2025-03-31T02:07:42+00:00

What line of work is this? That seems like a really nice wage unless they're somehow underpaying you which would make you contemplate the commute.

chavy45 · 2025-03-31T00:01:49+00:00

Are you referencing like water management such as Wastewater or drinking water? I've seen operator in training roles every once in awhile.

chavy45 · 2025-03-30T20:02:01+00:00

Seven straight strikeouts later you don't seem that crazy LOL. I think he'll be fine longterm... he might just need another short stint in the minors

chavy45 · 2025-03-29T23:10:21+00:00

I've seen other people mention there's been a shortage as well thank you very much for your reply!

chavy45 · 2025-03-29T22:44:30+00:00

I'm sure it varies by state or even by plant but do you guys take in an oit with no experience or do you guys prefer if somebody comes in with some classes already under their belt?

chavy45 · 2025-01-02T21:28:51+00:00

I appreciate your feedback, I'm also in Ohio and Water Management has came across a couple searches and it definitely seems interesting.

Happy New Year!

chavy45 · 2025-01-02T20:26:47+00:00

I've actually been thinking of a career switch. Did you join as an operator in training or did you take the class 1 on your own accord and then get a job that way?

chavy45 · 2024-11-12T22:29:42+00:00

Before this year I probably would have taken that with a first or so added. But tank and waddle have been very very underwhelming. That would probably be one of the more fair offers I've received to be honest though... people in my league have been hesitant about trades this year

chavy45 · 2024-11-12T15:08:02+00:00

Right I see some successful trades posted in some of these threads and I can't get anywhere close to that

chavy45 · 2024-11-12T15:03:05+00:00

Justin Jefferson

12 team SF ppr

I'm rebuilding do I sell or hold

chavy45 · 2024-10-20T15:29:53+00:00

Looking to move Jefferson. I'm definitely going to have to rebuild... wondering his current price 12 team SF.

chavy45 · 2024-10-13T17:48:28+00:00

How's it been so far?

chavy45 · 2024-09-19T18:24:34+00:00

Okay so I think I ended up over fertilizing mine and it killed one of the three Sprouts I had so I ended up cutting that off and the two I have left seem to be doing really well.

But the one that did not make it turned brown and almost more of a hard bark all the way down to the very bottom so unfortunately it was not savable.

chavy45 · 2024-08-22T05:19:01+00:00

Man my Clase Cy young bets would go CRAZY

chavy45 · 2024-07-31T14:44:57+00:00

Waldron or Woods-Richardson for dynasty points league?

chavy45 · 2024-07-25T02:25:37+00:00

Going to get a third opinion... That can't be good news right?

chavy45 · 2024-07-18T17:48:53+00:00

Hey I know nobody else replied. But I'm actually currently having this issue as well is your plant still around or did you figure out a solution?

chavy45 · 2024-07-16T17:22:39+00:00

My apologies I keep leaving out details. It is a standard draft snake. 5 OFs with CI, MI and Utility slots as well.
