Although I know the refrigeration business is a very tough one, I still think refrigeration contractors and technicians have it better on the “R” side of the business than do the guys on the HVAC side.
Why is that? Let me start by telling you about Benny From The Bronx. I’m not exactly the world’s handiest guy. That’s why Benny is a great guy to know. Several years ago a friend of mine married Benny — a tough, blunt gentleman who came to Cleveland after growing up in The Bronx. I addition to being a good husband for my friend, Benny has turned out to be an excellent handyman for me and my wife. He knows how to fix just about anything, and does very nice renovation work. Most recently he re-did our entire laundry room: new paint, new laminate floor, new wash tub and faucet, even a new door.
