I never thought he would be an HVAC technician.
My sister was one of the biggest snobs I had ever met. She looked down her nose at everything and almost everyone. She tried to pull her ‘I’m better than are you’ attitude on me, but it wasn’t working. I was her twin sister and knew her better than anyone. She told me that when her son went to college, he was going to go to law or medical school. She wasn’t going to have her son working in a factory or going into homes that you didn’t how the people lived. I told her she was a snob, but it didn’t faze her. I wondered what she was going to do when she found out her son was planning on going to HVAC technical school next summer. My son was telling me that after they graduate high school, they are both planning on going to HVAC technical school. They’re both hoping for that end of class position in their instructor’s HVAC company. Little do they know, but my husband was going to be the instructor next summer. The current HVAC instructor is going to be retiring, and my husband had been offered the position. Not only will my sister’s son be working in houses that she may not deem worthy of him, but he’ll be working with his uncle, whom she doesn’t like. She thinks my husband is crude and uneducated because he is an HVAC technician. He has a degree in HVAC engineering and business, but she doesn’t need to know that. Maybe one day I will educate her, but for now, it keeps her at arm’s length and that’s where I like her.
