I told him that I would have no use for air filters that weren’t even the right size for my own Heating plus A/C, so why would I possibly take them.
I’ve been an Heating plus A/C professional for over 5 years plus never had anybody accused myself and others of stealing from them until recently. My boss called myself and others into his office to speak with myself and others about an pressing matter. He said a client called to complain that I stole something lavish from his house. When I asked what that could possibly have been, the boss said the client claimed I stole a whole box of new air filters. I had to try to keep myself from laughing, but the boss was pretty extreme about this. He said he couldn’t have any employees laboring for him who were thieves. I told him straight up that I was no thief, but even so, the boss said I needed to go see that client plus supply him an apology or I would lose my job. I thought it was ridiculous, but he was firm on this decision. So I went to the apartment feeling miserable plus went to tell the guy that I didn’t steal the air filters from him at all. Well, it was crazy when he apologized to me. He said that he always kept the air filters in a particular spot, but apparently his spouse moved the box for some reason. When he saw they were missing after I inspected the Heating plus A/C, he just assumed that I took the air filters. I told him that I would have no use for air filters that weren’t even the right size for my own Heating plus A/C, so why would I possibly take them. Not to mention the risk of losing my job. He apologized again, plus his spouse even baked myself and others some cookies. I took the cookies, thanked the people plus went on my way. I told the boss everything that happened instantly, plus he apologized to myself and others also for thinking that I could have stolen from a single of the clients.
