I don’t think I’ve ever seen that sort of smile on Sheila’s face.
She’s been with me now for more than a decade and I still don’t remember her smiling quite that big.
But when she came back from vacation this winter and saw the ductless heat pump, she didn’t know whether to laugh or cry. It was worth every penny I spent having the HVAC company install that ductless heat pump just to see her face. I own a landscaping company and I hired Sheila to run the office more than 10 years ago. Without her holding down the phones, the schedule and all the other stuff she does, I wouldn’t be still in business. And she did all that without any sort of real residential HVAC. Our office is really just part of a sort of warehouse where I store all my equipment. There is a sort of reception area where she is and a small office where I work. But most of the time, I’m out either onsite or bidding a job. I would try to throw a window air conditioner in the part of the office where she was for the summer. And we had a space heater for the rest of the time since our winter isn’t all that tough. But this summer, my dear assistant is going to be in total comfort with the ductless heat pump. I know she is just thrilled at the prospect of not having to dread the summer heat. I even replaced the furniture in that part of the office and got her a brand new chair and computer. Coming back from vacation never felt so good is what she told me.
