One frosty December morning, I got a call about a furnace breakdown at a small bakery downtown. As I arrived, the delicious smell of freshly baked bread filled the air.
I greeted the anxious owner and assured her I’d get the heat back on soon. Heading down to the basement, I found the old furnace looking worse for wear. I got to work, carefully inspecting and cleaning the parts. Everything seemed to be going smoothly until I heard a faint hiss. A gas leak!
My heart raced. I knew I had to act quickly to avoid any danger. I turned off the main gas supply and ventilated the area. The owner peeked down the stairs, worry etched on her face. I calmly explained the situation and reassured her that I’d handle it.
After securing the leak and ensuring there was no lingering gas, I set about repairing the furnace. By the time I was done, the basement was warm and toasty again. The owner thanked me profusely, offering me a loaf of her famous sourdough as a token of gratitude.
As I drove away, I couldn’t help but smile. Another day, another job well done—keeping people warm and safe was why I loved my work.
