When I was a kid, I loved going outside.
I would spend all day outdoors hanging out with my friends.
We would ride our bikes all over the neighborhood and go to the river or the creek. My mom saw me once during the day when I came home for lunch and most of the time I brought friends with me. My mom always had peanut butter and jelly sandwiches and ramen noodles. Sometimes we even had grilled cheese and tomato soup. I loved the summer months when we were out of school and I didn’t mind that heat and humidity at all. As an adult, I find the heat and humidity to be absolutely dreadful. Some days I wonder why I ever chose an occupation that has me outside all of the time. I went to technical school and learned the trade of heating, ac, and refrigeration repair services. I knew that the job was in high demand. My uncle works in the heating, ac, and refrigeration repair service field as well. He has a nice house and a boat and I wanted that too. I spent 14 months going to trade school everyday from 9:00 a.m. until 5:00 p.m. and I graduated with the knowledge and information necessary to service all heating, air conditioning, and refrigeration equipment. I work for a company in Orland Park Illinois where I live. The Orland Park Illinois company is a short drive from my apartment. The Orland Park service provider gave me a company truck too, so I don’t even worry about gas or maintenance on my own vehicle.
