Working as a HVAC specialist for years
In the next month, I will officially have been working as a heating and air conditioning specialist for 12 years.
That is a long time, and I am proud of how long I have been working as a heating and A/C specialist.
There are not many people that can say they genuinely enjoy their job, but I do. And the funniest part is the fact that I was originally discouraged from becoming a HVAC technician, because my family thought that it wouldn’t make enough money, or be in high demand. But yet I have been able to keep a job for 12 years, and they keep switching jobs or getting laid off. I am glad I didn’t let other people’s opinions affect my decision making, because otherwise I could be a miserable office worker right about now. The thing I love about being a heating specialist, is the fact that most of the days are a predictable routine, but with enough variety so you won’t get bored. I honestly can’t see myself working at any other job, unless it is another HVAC job. I see myself retiring as a HVAC worker, or maybe trying to open my own A/C company. I also would consider becoming an independent HVAC technician. But one thing is for sure, I am happy staying as a HVAC tech. I am hoping that I can eventually settle down and start a family, and maybe one of my kids will be interested in following in my footsteps. The idea of teaching a kid all about HVAC technology sounds exciting to me, but I’m not sure if they would be interested or not.
