I’m no kind of saint or martyr, but I do like to help folks whenever I can.I’ve realized that I don’t have too many skills on this Earth, but I am easily fantastic with my hands.
- I think how to service something when it breaks.
I can Tinker along with the best of them. If you provide me a broken appliance and a few days, I can generally get the item in working order again. That being said, I tried to use my mechanical skills in order to help other people whenever it’s possible, recently I was excited to be able to assist my neighbor when his furnace broke down in the middle of a terrible storm. Leading up to Christmas we had incredibly cold weather that many furnaces were not capable of contending with. In this area we usually have mild Winters and a generally sizzling climate, so there isn’tmuch investment in our gas furnaces and other heating equipment. As such, when there is quickly a immense demand to use your central heating, cooling, and air quality control system during a blizzard… A lot of gas furnaces fail. I noticed my neighbor was get-together wood outside and asked him about his heating situation, however he told me that his gas furnace had stopped working the night before. The local heating, cooling, and ventilation company was not operating on the holiday. I decided to go take a look at his furnace and promptly found the problem. I was able to clear out a blockage in the furnace and his temperature control promptly became functional again. I don’t consider myself any sort of Santa Clause, but I am glad to think that my neighbor is safe and comfortable with a working and furnace.
