I spend a lot of time driving in my car because I travel a lot for work.
I don’t mind driving, but sometimes I do find myself getting a little bit achy.
I’m definitely grateful that I have a great working air conditioner that helps make the longer trips bearable. When I first began working at my current company, my air conditioner stopped working for a few weeks. Normally not having an air conditioner in our cooler climate would not have been a big deal. However, we were experiencing a heat wave at the time and all of the mechanics were booked with air conditioner repairs and tune ups. It’s been really important for me to have a quality air conditioner in my car so that I can stay cool going in and out of appointments all day. Because I sometimes have to park directly under the sun, I rely on the power of the A/C to cool off the car as soon as possible before I have to leap from it again. I get an A/C tune up every couple of months since I drive so often, but my company pays for all of my gas and regular maintenance visits. I’m so grateful to have a company that will pay for things like that. The job that I had before this one only paid for the gas and left all of the maintenance expenses up to me. Since I am traveling to do the work for them, they should definitely be paying for my mode of transportation. This is especially true since I use my own vehicle for work.
