Then he told me that my saying about the heat and AC, reminded him that his daughter had told him I was an HVAC technician
The first time I went to my wife’s family house, I was in shock. She had told me her father had a really good job, and her mother owned her own business, but ice still was not prepared for the house I was seeing. I just sat in my car, wondering how anyone could afford to heat this house? Three of my houses could have fit in that home. When my then girlfriend came flying out of the front door, I couldn’t even open my car door. She looked concerned, but then I waved my hand at the house. She chuckled and told me about her dad’s job, and who her mother was, and the business that she owned. I was even more intimidated by meeting her parents, then I was just staring at their home. I was hoping she would tell me that she worked there, and not lived there. When I met her father, I couldn’t help but blurt out about his ability to heat and cool this huge house. He nodded and smiled at me. Then he told me that my saying about the heat and AC, reminded him that his daughter had told him I was an HVAC technician. He said that it’s a good thing they had the jobs they had, or there was no way he would be able to heat and cool this house. He also added that since his future son-in-law was an HVAC technician, at least he wasn’t going to have to pay for the maintenance and repairs that go with the HVAC system. My wife told me that only if we were able to have our own wing in the house, would I be working on her father’s HVAC system.
