Everyday when I go to work my son tells me to have a fun day fixing air conditioning and heating systems.
He is only six and so he still thinks that dad’s job is the coolest thing in the world.
I work as a heating and A/C repairman for a local HVAC corporation and while I really enjoy what I do, it is not always a good day. While I would say that the majority of heating and A/C units are straightforward to repair, there are always a few that cause me difficulty. Another problem that I sometimes run into is the people, don’t get me wrong most of the people that I meet are very friendly but there is always that one person every now and again that complains endlessly and somehow blames me for all of the problems their heating and cooling system is having, even if I haven’t done so much as look at it. My days start out mostly the same, I get up and head to the heating and A/C business and then start heading out to the homes that need their heating or a/c system fixed. During the winter and summer months are always the busiest. In the summer everyone wants their air conditioner serviced so it won’t break down from the heat, and in the winter I am working on furnaces pretty much daily because nobody wants to freeze. I really enjoy working as a HVAC technician, while it has its downsides, I like the challenge of repairing a heat or a/c unit.
