And she finally got a job at an HVAC company, she was thrilled beyond recognition
My wife’s been struggling to find work ever since she left the food and hospitality industry. It was steady work with good pay before the covid-19 pandemic hit. Suddenly she was without a job and worrying how she was going to pay her bills and survive. That’s when she had to take a really toxic job working as a barista at a major coffee corporation. During the pandemic, these jobs were some of the worst in terms of exposure to the virus. And I remember the fear that I saw in her eyes on an almost daily basis when she would come and go from work. That’s when she decided she wanted to go to technical school to get training to make a new career for herself. I assumed that she would pick up or she left off with food and hospitality by learning to cook professionally. However, she surprised me when she said that her passion was with heating and cooling work. She took a class on commercial and residential HVAC and loved it. Soon she had her licensing and certifications to work as an HVAC technician. And she finally got a job at an HVAC company, she was thrilled beyond recognition. I’m so proud of my wife for doing the hard work to start a new career and make a positive change in her ongoing life. I just want my wife to be happy and working in a better environment than the one she was in before. Hopefully she will have a lot of job security working in the heating and cooling industry.
