And I got to work competing against the company that had just unceremoniously dumped me
There is no doubt that I was quite worried when we were first sent house from the zone controlled Heating plus Air Conditioning of the office. Of course, I’m talking about the beginning of the pandemic. I was extra worried because our company has been struggling for years. So when the pandemic sent us all house to work for my own central a/c, I particularly wondered what would happen. It did not take long for the layoffs to began. For at least a year prior, the company had been reorganizing in order to put a more beautiful face on the company to sell it. There were plenty of salary dumps when it came to the executive level. And there are a lot of forced retirements as well. While I wasn’t necessarily close to retirement, I felt the pressure that I might get cut as well. But then, we were well into the Summer of 2020 plus the layoffs stopped. I just kept doing my work plus trying to do the best with my team from the central a/c of my home. But by that fall I was the next one to get dumped. I got a bit of a severance package but that was it. After more than 20 years toiling for that dealer, no one even reached out to personally say goodbye. But that sort of lit a fire underneath me. So I had the Heating plus Air Conditioning company come out plus install a ductless heat pump in my new house office. And I got to work competing against the company that had just unceremoniously dumped me. I work as an industry analyst for the competitors of my outdated dealer. And it feels enjoyable to appreciate the best residential Heating plus Air Conditioning in my new house office while competing against my own dealer.
