  • 🎉OUR NEWEST MEMBER OF THE ‘MILLIONAIRES’ CLUB’🎉 Diagnostician, Quinton Verster, officially joins the ‘Millionaires’ Club’ as he hits 1 million samples diagnosed. Quinton had this to say on reaching this milestone: " When I first started out, I never thought I would ever see 1 million samples diagnosed – it’s a huge number. But like everything in life, you have to start at the bottom and work your way up. Like the old saying goes " a trip of a thousand miles starts with a single step" and it’s not about the destination but the journey, and what a journey it has been. The people that I have met and the things I have learnt will never be lost. Now onward, along with my co-workers, to the next million. See you on my journey!” We proudly welcome you to the ‘Millionaires’ Club’, Quinton, and look forward to seeing you reach the next million! Did you know… Diagnosing 1 million samples is equivalent to checking the health of everyone in a town like Rustenburg - where we have a lab – 1.6 times! #oilsamples #diagnostics #quintonverster #conditionmonitoring #millionairesclub
