haha what world are you living in? Im from Canada work 40 hours a week(sometimes more), sometimes drop a few hours in the colder months and make $33.00 and hour. What the fuck are you talking about? good HVAC bitches have an intense knowege of electrical and a wide variety of building system mechanicals along with the refrigeration cycle. I know some bitches that could put mechanical engineers to shame.

I mean... making 60 to 75 grand a yr and not paying for ANY gasoline and having a company but your work boots coats and supply you w jeans and shirts is pretty nicer too tho right???

@Legitbusiness1182 well...what do you do..treated like shit??? I mean u r your own boss for the most part..you have a company vehicle a gas card...a work phone...more job security than construction. You have to be smart and a problem solver as well. I'd rather use my brain then break my back lifting schedule 40 pipe all day. Maybe your just jealous bc your too stupid to have a job like this????? It's OK. It happens.

@ZuffaLtdDanaWhite Also it might've been discouraging to work for some crumby ppl in the beginning and at that low $ rate of pay.

success in hvac-r consists of:

- strong will and desire

-mechanical aptitude

-continue to question and learn

-part-time HVAC-R courses

-Networking throughout HVAC-R wholesalers and Local union contractors A-Z list.

@riperez81 For myself that was the reality of it in the beginning too, as it was hard to get a job in the industry without skill. If u have no connections u have to start from the bottom up. Even if it means 9-10$ an hr to gain enough skill and to prove yourself worthy of an apprenticeship. After that is signed your IN, and you got yourself a drivers license. its a great career and it takes great interest to succeed in it, unfortunate for you, you gave up in the beginning?

ahha this is gold!

starting out I would try to get a job during the summer time so you get all your training and usually a company will weed out bad techs before winter so learn as much as possible and show them you wanna WORK.Like said before good techs always get work.
