This was a tipping point for me to find complete disregard for the HVAC equipment and what it costs for all the cooling that was sliding right out the front door.

It’s high time this family starts to understand that we don’t simply have an endless supply of money. And it’s starting with some serious HVAC accountability. I have to take some share of the blame for the way my family appears to view our good fortune. It’s always my aim to be sure that everyone has what they need and much of what they want. And I’m very glad, thankful and proud to be able to provide that level of support. But lately, I’m feeling like our way of life is totally being taken for granted. I came home from yet another 12 hour day at the office to find the front door wide open. Not only is this a safety concern but I could feel the HVAC cooling pouring out of the house from 15 feet away. The air conditioning had been running non stop all day I’m sure. When I went to have a look at the thermostat, it was indeed cranked down to the 60’s. My reaction was totally out of character. I simply blew my stack. This was a tipping point for me to find complete disregard for the HVAC equipment and what it costs for all the cooling that was sliding right out the front door. I slammed everybody. From my wife down to the youngest child, I let them all know that this sort of blatant disrespect would no longer be tolerated. To underscore my seriousness, I asked all of them for 20 dollars to pay for all the air conditioning that when out the door.
