      I did chemical engineering as my major in undergrad. A good chunk of my classmates are basically just project management, but others ended up shipped off to Siberia so it’s a toss up

      Look for things with high pressure piping and/or megawatt utility power lines and you’ll probably find a chemical engineer touched it at some point, especially if they can be broken down into unit process skids like “compressor”, “pump”, “heat exchanger”, “phase separator”, “separation column”, or, especially, “reactor”. The concept of “unit process”, especially in the application of scaling up benchtop chemistry procedures, is uniquely a chemical engineering concept.

      Power plants. Water treatment. Pulp and paper mills. Oil and gas (up/mid/downstream). Semiconductor lithography. Battery production. Ore processing. Biofuel production.

        I’ve been a chemical engineer for 13 years, it was a joke about it being safe. One of my first jobs was with hydrofluoric acid 😂

          I’ve heard stories of grad students flat out refusing to work with HF. (Never relevant for me, other than being something very scary.)

            Now imagine a contract manufacturing plant that hires line workers through temp agencies and you can understand why I am yearning for a safe chemE job

            (I walked out of that place btw)

          You want the job designing plants, not the job where you die when the plant you designed blows up.

            No I don’t

            I want safely designed plants and people who work at them to know how to work safe

        Also, the food industry. “Modified food starch”.

        Also, consumer goods. “Methylchloroisothiazolinone”.

Comic Strips is a community for those who love comic stories.

Rules
  1. 😇 Be Nice!

    • Treat others with respect and dignity. Friendly banter is okay, as long as it is mutual; keyword: friendly.
  2. 🏘️ Community Standards

    • Comics should be a full story, from start to finish, in one post.
    • Posts should be safe and enjoyable by the majority of community members, both here on lemmy.world and other instances.
    • Any comic that would qualify as raunchy, lewd, or otherwise draw unwanted attention by nosy coworkers, spouses, or family members should be tagged as NSFW.
    • Moderators have final say on what and what does not qualify as appropriate. Use common sense, and if need be, err on the side of caution.
  3. 🧬 Keep it Real

    • Comics should be made and posted by real human beans, not by automated means like bots or AI. This is not the community for that sort of thing.
  4. 📽️ Credit Where Credit is Due

    • Comics should include the original attribution to the artist(s) involved, and be unmodified. Bonus points if you include a link back to their website. When in doubt, use a reverse image search to try to find the original version. Repeat offenders will have their posts removed, be temporarily banned from posting, or if all else fails, be permanently banned from posting.
    • Attributions include, but are not limited to, watermarks, links, or other text or imagery that artists add to their comics to use for identification purposes. If you find a comic without any such markings, it would be a good idea to see if you can find an original version. If one cannot be found, say so and ask the community for help!
  5. 📋 Post Formatting

    • Post an image, gallery, or link to a specific comic hosted on another site; e.g., the author’s website.
    • Meta posts about the community should be tagged with [Meta] either at the beginning or the end of the post title.
    • When linking to a comic hosted on another site, ensure the link is to the comic itself and not just to the website; e.g.,
      ✅ Correct: https://xkcd.com/386/
      ❌ Incorrect: https://xkcd.com/
  6. 📬 Post Frequency/SPAM

    • Each user (regardless of instance) may post up to five (5 🖐) comics a day. This can be any combination of personal comics you have written yourself, or other author’s comics. Any comics exceeding five (5 🖐) will be removed.
  7. 🏴‍☠️ Internationalization (i18n)

    • Non-English posts are welcome. Please tag the post title with the original language, and include an English translation in the body of the post; e.g.,
      Sí, por favor [Spanish/Español]
  8. 🍿 Moderation

    • We are human, just like most everybody else on Lemmy. If you feel a moderation decision was made in error, you are welcome to reach out to anybody on the moderation team for clarification. Keep in mind that moderation decisions may be final.
    • When reporting posts and/or comments, quote which rule is being broken, and why you feel it broke the rules.
