And the kid that did the work literally stunk from being unclean. His clothing was filthy, his socks had huge holes in them and he had lingering body odor that made me nauseous. He was White.

Guy was nice enough and did a good job but, man the uncleanliness made me uncomfortable.

Pretty unusual for people to be so unkempt nowdays...

I've been considering taking some hvac classes at my local community college. I found some loophole that I qualify for where I can just do it for free. Always good to have another skill and even if I never go into the field I can stop paying others in a pinch.

It's really not that difficult, especially if you're just doing general maintenance on a furnace.

I had to install a new inducer on mine this year because the old one was getting dry bearings after almost 30 years of use.

Always good to have that knowledge and skill in your wheelhouse. Make yourself recession proof and indispensable to friends and family- and yourself.

Were you the first call of the day? I've had late day appointments and they look dirty as hell.

No so there was no excuse. I mean this kid smelled and his socks looked like he wore the outside they were so dirty.

He was a zoomer I assume? I notice this is becoming common among them, paired with nonexistential social skills and lack of basic problem solving.

Not all are like this, but pattern is there.

Yeah he's a zoomer but, I don't know, maybe he's depressed or something...he seemed like a nice kid. Someone just needs to remind him to maintain hygiene and take pride in who he is and his skill has real value.

Just an observation.

White zoomers have been more online while growing up than other generations, so no wonder they are depressed when all they listened to is how horrible White people are.
