AFFORDABLE HEATING and COOLING

I started in early 2016 before that I did three interviews.
The person I was supposed be working with they didn’t place me with.
I had to be on payroll butt due to the Tom Tom not working a lot.
I was paying for the apprenticeship that wasn’t even set up during the whole six mouths.
The co worker quit, so I was replaced with someone.
This someone didn’t want to do his job right.
This someone didn’t want teach me. I had to learn from YouTube. This someone didn’t set up things right and got myself and his self ban. If he listen to me. We wouldn’t. I had to go to management because I felt my job security was at risk. Done nothing but let me go.
I joy it because I needed experience I seen good mangers and plumber, co workers quit within four weeks. 
Also their vans break down a lot.
If you want experience! This the place!
I got along with everyone and I joy my time their and wish could be a lot better. 
They got week of vacation, tool program.

I started working for Affordable in April of 2010 and had been working in the heating and cooling field for 13yrs and the owner and a co-worker had just started the company 3 or 4 years prior. So I was looked to for advice by both of them. So in alot of ways without the state title I was the lead technician. I was in trusted to run calls on weekends at my availbility. So I enjoyed the independence of setting my schedule when running calls for the most part.

I started out at Affordable Heating and cooling as plenum cutter in there warehouse. I learned everything I could so that I could advance at my first chance. A good thing because at about my sixth month mark I got the chance to go out to do installs and within about 3 months from there I was able to lead my own crew. As far as advancement this job was great and I am grateful for my management for giving me the opportunity to show my skills. over all the management was good but showed a lot of preference for certain people.

My normal day at Affordable Heating and Cooling consisted of using hand tools, saws and working with metal pipe and duct work. In my time I learned how to mange my tasks for the day in an order that is productive. The management at Affordable is fun and friendly and attentive to any questions you may have about your task. I would say the hardest part about this job is getting used to hard labor if not previously experienced. What I enjoyed about Affordable was the trust instilled in me to get jobs done.

What is the best part of working at the company?
The guys I work with the owner taught me everything 

What is the most stressful part about working at the company?
Most stressful is knowing what you have to do then find out you don't have the right equipment then have to wait on the right equipment 

What is the work environment and culture like at the company?
Hvac technician service technician installation services 

What is a typical day like for you at the company?
Installation of new equipment

A typical day at work is never the same.  We do multiple new installs or replacements one day and the next we could have capacitor burnouts or contactor coils to be changed.  I'm picking up on troubleshooting techniques as I progress through school at delta technical college , so it is easier to diagnose  or pinpoint trouble areas in a component.  There really is no hard part to any job just adaptation and new learning experiences.  I mostly enjoy that no job is ever really the same.

Yea they only make you work 40 hours but they definitely expect you to do everything in the office from babysitting their dogs and their technicians to cleaning the office area windows kitchen area  and their bathrooms and definitely aren’t appreciative, heard them talk down about their employees and customers also but always wanted office moral to be upbeat and happy 

fired many people for very petty reason had people switched around for different positions had many false promises and gossip was insane worked in very unsafe conditions fired almost all apprentices likely not doing any schooling

Get 40+ hours almost every week year round.  Overtime is not required often but is available if I wanted it.  Lots of knowledgeable journeyman that are good to work with.

Working for this woman has its ups and its downs. She would get mad over the little things. Her kids were always running around the salon. She would try to take your clients away from you and talk about you behind your back.  Doesn't keep the place real clean.
