After signing up for courses, I went over to the HVAC company to talk to my dad
I have been doing the same job for the last 10 years, and it was not getting any more enjoyable. It seemed the longer I worked in that position, the less I liked it. I got home from work last week and confronted my wife. I told her I could not continue doing the job any longer. She asked me what was going on, and I told her I was just not happy. She asked me what I wanted to do, but I really wasn’t sure. I thought I might enjoy being an HVAC technician like my father. When he asked me to join his HVAC company, I was a wild teenager who wanted nothing to do with my parents. After 10 years, I was no longer a wild teenager, and the thought of working with my father sounded great to me. I asked her how she would feel if I was an HVAC technician. She said she didn’t care what I did, as long as I was happy. The next day, instead of going to work, I went to the local community college and signed up for HVAC courses. After signing up for courses, I went over to the HVAC company to talk to my dad. I told him I had just quit my job and signed up for HVAC courses in all he could do was smile. When he asked if I planned on working for the HVAC company when I was done with the classes and I said yes, I saw tears in his eyes. I never realized how much it meant to him to have me working in his HVAC company.
