I mean, I was the only kid I knew who was allowed to go and help out the repairman who would come over to do work! I used to think all grown up because he would let me hand him the right tools from the tool box and sometimes he would even show me what he was working on.
At the condo where I grew up, the people I was with and I used to have people over at our condo all the time. It wasn’t just people coming over for social visits and parties, though. The two of us also had lots of salesmen and repairmen coming over to the condo too, my actually number one repairman was the HVAC professional who used to come over to service our furnace for us. He would always come and talk to me and hang out with me before and after he was doing the heating and cooling repairs for us, however not only that, but he would let me hang around with him while he was down in the basement in the furnace room working. I always used to know that that was so cool when I was a kid. I mean, I was the only kid I knew who was allowed to go and help out the repairman who would come over to do work!

I think love I l earned a lot about heating and cooling and ventilation back then when I was a kid. I mean, kids can absorb all kinds of things when they are little, and I suppose that I l earned a lot from that guy. The HVAC professional was genuinely our number one out of anyone who ever came to work on the house. It was just nice of him to let me hang out with him! Once in a while, you meet an adult who entirely just wants to be nice to a kid and teach them things and I know that’s the kind of guy he was.
