I’ve been thinking about this for a while now, it blows my mind how ridiculously low the pay is for HVACR instructors. Yeah, sure—there are plenty of washed-up techs who couldn’t hack it in the field and ended up teaching, but there are also some seriously solid educators out there. And it’s just sad how little they’re paid. The fact that their students are out there making more money than them within 6 months to a year? That’s wild. Even knowing all that, I still catch myself daydreaming about teaching full-time and walking away from the contracting grind. But let’s be real—I couldn’t support my family or keep living the lifestyle I’ve worked hard to build. So I keep telling myself, maybe I’ll give it a shot when I retire. But by then, I’ll probably just be some irrelevant old dude rambling about the “good ol’ days” while everyone zones out ………. Random thoughts from Chris
