My mother was questioning my work ethics.

Of all the people in the world that would have a reason to question my work ethics, I never thought it would be my mother.

Mom saw how hard I struggled to make sure I always did my best.

I never took shortcuts when doing homework or housework for her. That mom questioned my work ethics, not just hurt my feelings, but made me second-guess myself. It was difficult enough for me to graduate with honors, but it was even more difficult for me to go to HVAC certification school and graduate there with honors. When I started working for the HVAC company, I was working with the senior HVAC technician. He was continually praising me for the work that I was doing. After only three weeks, he put me out on my own and sent me out on HVAC repairs without another HVAC technician. When mom called to have her furnace serviced for the winter, the HVAC technician sent me. He said the service should go easy since it was my mother, but he was wrong. Because it took me longer than most people to do the servicing, she told me I was dawdling and wasting time. I told her I was just nervous because I was working for her. She said the fact that I was wasting time that could be used some place else was a sign of how good my work ethics were, and she didn’t think they were very good. When I get back to the HVAC company, I told him I never wanted to be sent to my parents’ house again, and told the owner of the HVAC company with my mother and said.
