The cold wave has snuck up on us. Sure it's probably not all that cold to all you northerners but its significant to us. I actually enjoy it, whats the use in owning a jacket if its 70 all winter long ya know? With the cooler weather it has also brought quite a bit of heat calls. Finally something to break the lull in work!!! With the waether being mild as it was, no one was using their heat, or their a/c. If you don't use it, then it doesn't break!!! So appart from the maintenance contracts I have it was rather quiet around here. I work on commission, (for lack of a longer explanation). So when the calls come in I have to go, if I want to get paid that is. As well as keep that customer on top of that. When people are freezing, or burning up they'll call anyone who can get there and take care of it the quickest. They always resort to who they had LAST, but will easily go to someone else if they are unavailable. With the economy the way it is, I'm glad to be being called and can't afford to risk losing customers. Sure I get the weird hours now, (night & weekend calls mostly) but ya gotta do what ya gotta do, right? Suppose to get below freezing tonight, thats pretty chilly this far south. I think when it gets here I'll throw on a jacket and maybe get a cup of hot chocolate and go for a stroll... if I manage to not be working.
