Desmond’s acceptance of the completion certificate at the January-February workshop commencement.

Title: Desmond’s Growth & Confidence – HVAC Technical Academy Introduction

Seriously.

Okay, Desmond, you know a heck of a lot more than you think you know. I mean, I know that—you just need to know that. And all of y’all know a heck of a lot more than you think you know.

But specifically, you do. You know about compressors, you know about everything that we’ve done. You can braze, you can do everything that needs to be done.

The only thing I want you to work on is a little more confidence, because you got it—you just don’t know you got it.

Gosh darn it, sorry—it’s just that emotional outrage. I apologize.

But come on up here, accept this, and please say something.

I really don’t know what to say.

First, I want to thank Danny and Lane. Then, next, my main man Andrew. Me and Andrew didn’t bump heads, but he was one of those guys who’s never gonna give you the answer—no matter how many times you ask or how you phrase the question.

Rob was the same way too, but Rob’s gonna… um…

I also want to say thank you to Mr. R from CareerSource.

And I ain’t gonna lie—I didn’t think I was gonna finish, but I did.

So, I’m proud of everybody, and I hope I see you guys again.
