One thing a lead man once told me was. even if you don't know what your doing you will always have a job if you just show up on time and are willing to work
Ответить100٪ agree with everything they said i grew up in a household with no mechanicaly inclined parent/grandparent i taught myself how to wotk on are vehicals to help up till college i became an industrial painter then was given the oportunity to aprentice an hvac/plumbing company wich now after 5 yrs im one of the lead service techs but it took almost 5 yrs of install it all comes down to are you willink to work and learn
ОтветитьAt 5 minutes I loved what he said I didn’t grow up working with my hands with my dad. So as I got older I became a roofer learned the basics of tools. Now I’m in hvac training for a great company and want to be better overall with my hands and problem solving so even if it’s not hvac o do a lot more around my house and projects. Plus following you two.. I can’t lose !
ОтветитьStarting school for Hvac this month, always worked in food business , really excited for a new career change. At 31 im super excited!
ОтветитьMost of the basic employers think people are begging them for work
ОтветитьYou folks are the best. I’ve learned a lot about HVAC just by watching both of your videos and tutorials. I’m humbly and sincerely appreciative for what you folks do and teach. I can’t thank you all enough. Cheers from Arkansas/Texas region !!
Ответитьdidn't know sht went too school to learn the basic and was glade i did because it's a man's job you have to be on your toes
ОтветитьReally wonderful vid, gents. Thanks! I'm up there after 35+ years in the biomedical field but I find HVAC just fascinating, and you are dead spot on about the learning skill sets which are not taught in the schools today. I've swapped blower fans, cleaned evap and condenser coils, changed "tired" wiring, and diagnosed a/c capacitor faults. Kinda figured out how things worked on my RV A/C unit.
ОтветитьY’all are still gettin out there! Good job!
ОтветитьLove these guys!
ОтветитьWow the 2 best HVAC professionals linked up!...love it!...hopefully ya'll can do more videos together💪
ОтветитьDEAR SIR , where are you from...?
ОтветитьAwesome video.
ОтветитьAs a woman. How do you treat them as a coworker? Coming from construction and pipeline labouring...I got harassed a lot. Is this a trade where men would make me feel safe and treat me with respect in regards to being a woman?
ОтветитьYou guys hit everything spot on, thank you for this video
ОтветитьYeah these boomers had it too easy, I had to go to school for hvac to get in the trade
ОтветитьA major problem in the HVAC industry, isn't hiring the wrong people.....it's keeping the wrong people. If someone shows up on day one with zero abilities, knowledge, training, and a bad attitude, they aren't going to change. It's only going to drag your company down and give you a bad name. For example.... the White House.
Ответить👍👍👍
Ответитьmost important thing first off in any field is be punctual and reliable. nothing annoys owners more than not being able to rely on somebody. just show up for work, everyone else employed there likely does.
2nd, dont be cocky or think you know everything or how to do it. listen to the mechanic when he shows you something or observes you struggling and gives you advice on how to fix it. if you are ever unsure on something, or you just want to double check, always ask questions. obviously with wiring, an error with that can result in damaged equipment and a costly repair. it can also be something as simple as confirming with the mechanic how he wants something to be done. for instance the flue, gaspipe, drain or lineset may have to be ran a certain way for clearance, other trades needing to run their stuff in a certain way etc.
last thing and most important is just give 100%. some guys may be able to do something neater or faster based on their experience but always give your best effort. the person signing your checks is not going to be happy with you milking a job, avoiding shitty attics/crawlspaces or showing up to a job with multiple employees on it and letting them do all the work whilee you relax
Awesome video!
ОтветитьNice presentation guys.
ОтветитьMotion and motion is one of the solutions from the results of thinking
ОтветитьAbout to start school next month
ОтветитьThis is a great video.. helpful insights and really telling what's practically required in the industry.. Hii, I'm from India.. can a six months certification in HVAC-R can help me getting job in this industry? May be in Canada? I'm new to this with no prior experience
ОтветитьNo one is born learning how to do a certain trade. The ogs have forgotten how they learned under a simple economy
ОтветитьThanks for this video 👍
ОтветитьThis was a great video
ОтветитьOne thing I learned very early on is do not overstate your skills. If you don't have skills or don't know how to do things, speak truthfully. A lot of businesses will be fine teaching a newbie how they want things done. If you tell your new boss you're skilled with tools and then can't display those skills, it reflects very poorly on you. If you run into a situation where you're taken on as a newbie and they refuse to teach you, whether having a shitty journeyman or shady practices of using you for cheap labor, you'll have to make a personal choice whether to stay on or find something better.
Ответитьwho else thought he was sitting in the back of the truck?
Ответитьim currently in class and they dont provide a sheet metal cutting
ОтветитьHow can I buy the book that have everything instead of buying a bit by bit?
ОтветитьSome of the things I wish I had focused on when I was a noob are schematic reading and multi meter skills.
ОтветитьThank you guys so much for putting your time into these videos! I have 10 years in the trades, and I’m a journeyman in my craft. I’m switching over to HVAC-R and fitting, and it’s important for me to know what is expected in your craft. I’d rather show up as a new guy who is able to quietly exceed expectations, than just be “along for the ride.”
ОтветитьI've learn a lot from Craig last year when I was away from the field working for my uncle Sam.
ОтветитьI start monday hopefully i do good
ОтветитьTwo legends
ОтветитьThank you for sharing your knowledge and experience with us.
I'm grateful.
I'll buy your books, thank you again
I’ve been working in the Trade for Just over a year now.
In that time I was promoted from helper to installer and Lead Installer within that time.
Now I’m running Tech Calls and Doing very well.
My Father Taught me to work harder then the next man.
But I learned the Technical Trade from Awesome Guys Like These.
Thanks to both of you For Sharing your Knowledge and making my Job Easier to Learn…
God Bless you all
An excellent skills test: Draw a line about 8 7/8" long, had the applicant a tape measure, and ask him how long the line is. When they say "8 and 17 little marks" you know they don't know much.
ОтветитьWhen I first enrolled in HVAC/R school years back, I had no idea how to use a multimeter.
Ответитьalways love when these guys get together.
ОтветитьThey all need mommy. I dropped interns due to soft skills. Maybe I'm the last of old school abuse that I endured to become who I am.
ОтветитьHow about maintaining seals and depressers. So it a pushed instead of a frozen finger.....
ОтветитьThanks for always being encouraging with the videos !
ОтветитьIf you make A/C test equipment with a joy-stick the learning curve may go up substantially - only kidding. I guess the best you can do (since the younger generation seems to be avoiding the trades - to their determent) is start them off as apprentices first (with the wage set for that skill level) & then see how well they do. In my experience as a supervisor in another field, as long as a person is willing to learn & work hard then you can guide them along the way. What other choice do you have if you are experiencing a shortage of qualified people?
ОтветитьIt's always great coming here always learning something new with these two guys ALWAYS
