I’ve been really working with my dad recently at the a/c and heating company he’s been really working for! I didn’t know my dad loved being an a/c supplier as much as I do now that I’ve seen him do the job on a regular basis. It’s really not all glitz and glamor to work as a supplier though, so last month both of us had a job cleaning the HVAC ducts of a pretty old home. I don’t think the owners have been living there for quite some time, so this was just routine service that was already a part of their service plan they had set up with the last supplier that worked on it. I knew the HVAC ducts were going to be gross because there was a wicked odor that came from the air vent right when both of us walked into the house. The HVAC ducts were filled with dead rats and mice, and lots of dead cockroaches as well. We recommended they call an exterminator or some type of pest control service to make sure those creatures stay away and out of the HVAC ducts. I hope they took our advice because that was entirely the worst home I’ve seen since really working with my dad. I think moments like that make him feel embarrassed about what he does, even though I don’t think one instance like that should give an entire opinion about the career itself. I’m really proud of him and glad to continue learning from him. I’m even thinking that this could be a career path for me as well.
