Once a week, every week, my Dad would take me into Springfield, MO. This was roughly an hour’s drive from where we lived. My family owned some land, which didn’t mean we were wealthy, just that we lived pretty far away from civilization. Aside from a gas station and a bait stand, there were no businesses within miles of my home. Throughout the week we kept a running list of all food and supplies we needed for the house, and then come the weekend we jumped in the pickup truck and made the drive to Springfield. Over twenty years have passed since then, and currently I call Springfield my home. Being on such a remote piece of land took its toll on me, so when I turned 18 I moved to Springfield because it was the closest real town. For the first time in my life I got to cut loose, party, and make friends, because Springfield had everything I ever wanted. Of course it took money to fuel such a lifestyle, which is how I got involved in doing HVAC work for a local contractor. There was such a high demand for HVAC work in Springfield that this guy was paying top dollar just for a trainee. I showed up on time, I worked hard, and I got paid excellent money, all while learning a skilled trade with HVAC service and repair. I love my job, to be sure, but I didn’t move to Springfield just for work, I came here to live a big, bold life – and that’s just what I am doing.
