Thanks for your comments. And yes I totally understand. I live in Arizona. Without water, shelter, and air-conditioning, you just can’t survive here. Period.
I do home repairs on the side, we drink Pedialyte daily, I have tons of ice water, wear hats, have air-conditioning in the vehicle, and if we’re not inside of a house, find shade to work in. Even with all of that, it’s a tough day to make it through.
This year I happen of had several surgeries, so I’m not working right now. But… It’s been so hot lately, I’m actually grateful. I’ll get back to it soon enough. And hopefully it won’t be so hot.
If possible, but we work in peoples homes. We have a real estate agent that contacts us when they’re selling homes, or when one of their clients needs help with minor repairs once they’ve moved in. We also have a property owner who rents their houses out. When there are repairs that need to be done, we show up and do them. So we try to avoid the heat as much as possible, but it’s Arizona. That’s all there is to it. We can’t work at 4 AM at peoples houses that have kids, or people who are just trying to get up and go to work. However, we’re pretty aware of our surroundings, drinking plenty of Pedialyte, having ice water in our truck, wearing hats went outside, and also having bandannas with ice in them around our necks. I would say 75% of the time we’re working inside somebody else’s house, however sometimes we have outdoor jobs as well. It just depends on what the job is. It’s not a full-time job, so I am grateful for that.
