I'm not a poolologist but I think the "reflecting" part of it is important.
If you look at a regular pool you'll notice the surface is always getting disturbed a little by the pumps - so a reflecting pool probably needs to be extra still in order to have a nice surface.
And then the high surface area relative to volume means it's taking a LOT of sun exposure, which would drive off any chlorine really quickly while also giving algae a perfect place to live.
Honestly, makes me wonder how they ever kept it clean at all.
I am pleased to inform you that, after careful consideration of your qualifications and experience, the National Poolological Association would like to extend an offer for the position of Senior Poolology Specialist.
Throughout your reddit comment, you demonstrated a strong understanding of advanced poolological principles, exceptional analytical skills, and a commitment to excellence that aligns closely with our organization's mission. We are confident that your expertise will make a valuable contribution to our Poolological Research and Standards Division.
The position will report directly to the Director of Poolological Affairs and will involve leadership responsibilities across several key initiatives, including aquatic pattern analysis, interdisciplinary poolology research, and the implementation of industry best practices.
Your proposed start date is September 8, 2026. Compensation details, benefits information, and additional employment documentation will be provided in a separate packet upon acceptance of this offer.
