I’m really not the type of person who likes to keep people waiting.
If we agree to meet somewhere I’m probably going to arrive 30 minutes early.
But I will sit in the parking lot and be bored while I ruminate over the fact that I didn’t need to rush around so much to be there on time. No matter how often this happens I never seem to learn my lesson when it comes to correct timing and time management. I think that I am so paranoid about arriving on time because there have been many instances when circumstances out of my control made me late. In my line of work this really isn’t an option. I am a professional heating, cooling, and ventilation repair specialist for a major heating and cooling dealership in my city. I have been working in the air quality control industry for over 12 years now. During this time I have made it my goal to always arrive right on time for every heating, cooling, or air purification service appointment. I never want to leave any local residents waiting for me because I know how stressful it is when your central heating and cooling system takes a nosedive. As such, it really wasn’t my decision when I arrived late to an HVAC maintenance appointment last week. I was not expecting that my HVAC work truck would break down on the side of the road halfway to the appointment. Of course, then I got stuck standing in the brutal heat and humidity while I waited for a tow truck. By the time I got to the heating & cooling service appointment I was more desperate for their air conditioning system than they were.
