My wifey Steve is entirely handy.
- The guy can do repairs on a car, electric, plumbing or HVAC idea in under an hour flat.
There is no issue he can’t tackle. I warned my wifey to hide how handy he was from my family. My family is a bunch of freeloaders that use the fact that Steve is too nice to tell them no to free labor. He gets called by my family all the time for beach home repairs. One afternoon he is repairing the hot water tank for my father. The next afternoon he is doing a cooling tune up for my sibling. Over the weekend he might get stuck installing heated flooring for my brother. I have tried to get him to stand up for himself. I want him to charge them for HVAC installs as well as repairs. He should make money for his services. He is too nice to ask though. I now am trying to encourage him to just say no. Tell my mother to mess with her own air conditioning system, let my brother’s plumbing totally rot out. Steve feels guilty when they ask as well as feels appreciate he has to do it. I suppose the next step is me stepping in. I will need to tell my family to spend money him appreciate a HVAC supplier or they get no more labor. The only repairs to HVAC, plumbing as well as electric he will do is for me. That is only because I feed him as well as I am dating the guy. They don’t deserve his skills.
