I don’t know about you, but sometimes I just want to escape reality.
Last week, I imagined I was on a deserted island. There was nothing on the island but me, the trees, and endless miles of beaches where I could fish and sunbathe. I know that wasn’t a very grown-up thing to do, however I had to escape. I thought about all the things I could do alone on that island. Of course, there came a time when I had to face reality. I don’t know if I would ever want to give up my job. I’ve always enjoyed being a HVAC technician. I was the first female HVAC technician in our area. I used to draw attention when I would pull up to the house and get out of the HVAC service van. There was one gentleman who didn’t even want me to come into his house because he didn’t think I was a real HVAC technician. I struggled to keep my cool at first, but then I had to laugh. I showed him my HVAC companies badge and my driver’s license to prove that I really was who the HVAC company badge said I was. It wasn’t until he called the HVAC company and asked who I was. He finally allowed me into his house and showed me where the furnace was. He then asked if a little thing like me was able to work on that first. I chuckled and told him he could watch me if he liked, but I really was okay with making the furnace repairs. I have been a HVAC technician for almost five years now..
