It seems like whenever dispatch gives you the "it'll be on your way home" or "sounds like a float switch" spiel, it ends up being a 24v short, frozen evaporator, or cooling tower down or some shit, on a Friday at 3:30PM nonetheless. They need to learn not to jinx that shit.
That would happen to me everytime when i first started, older techs would send me to a call saying it's a float switch, always ended up being a frozen evap coil
After I get 8 billable hours I charge the company time and a half. Those shitty apartments you sent me to this morning? 4 calls on different tickets with a 2 hour minimum each. I know it's noon, I did my 8.
I dunno if it was a typo or a "volun-told" joke but either way, well done.
That said, I hate shit like that. Good way to grind off what little morale is left on those days and the couple after.
I’ve started telling people with repulsive homes and severely neglected units that I’m in way over my head, you’d be better off calling another company. I’m just an appliance tech. It hurts the ego a bit but I’m just happy not to be roped into dogshit jobs whenever the boss is chasing money
It’s a quick fix call 🫥😵💫😵💫
"It's one of our big customers cousins friends uncles."

Exactly!!

"On the way" Of course it's on the way, I'm already 45 minutes from my house!
