Houston.

Thursday Oct. 23, 2008. I left to Houston for a business trip along with one co-worker and my boss. It had been slow for the past two weeks in the A/C business and my boss had sold a job up in Houston. We would not have done the job for any other reason save for the lack of business here in Corpus Christi. We left around 1:00 PM Thursday after doing a real quick job for our new construction builders that we work with. That would end up being costly, as we arrived in Houston at rush hour. And we were heading towards the north side of Houston. As for you people that do not know, Corpus Christi in below Houston. So we were coming from the south. Thus we ended up going straight through Houston, from one side to the other. And as for those of you who have been/lived in Houston, you know that we could have done better for our selves going around Houston. In the end we got to the house around 6:30 PM. However we did the outdoor unit that evening, to give us a head start for the next day.
We stayed at the Marriott, and the next morning went to work early. It was a little rough, as the unit was a gas furnace in an attic. Those are always the hardest. But this one was easier then most, as it had a lot of room in the attic. It took us six hours in all to get the job finished. Compared to the nine hours that we spent on the road. Overall it worked out rather well.
