Air conditioning: "I have installed air conditioning countless times, but I use an electric fan myself."

Deng Yong is repairing the outdoor air conditioner of a hotel in Haishu Gulou. His face is covered with sweat.

Roger sat on the windowsill, with one foot on the fixed bracket of the window machine, and most of his body leaned out from the windowsill on the seventh floor. The bright sunshine baked the main panel of the air conditioner into a "soldering iron", and his fingers were instantly burned red. ...

Roger was only 17 years old when he was engaged in air conditioning maintenance. In a blink of an eye, he is already an "old master" with six years of experience. Yesterday, the Municipal Meteorological Observatory issued a high-temperature orange warning again, and the highest temperature at the scene has reached 38.2 C. In this unforgettable summer, Roger ushered in the busiest moment of the year.

The reporter followed two air-conditioning workers to visit their high-temperature work site to understand their living conditions.

From 7 am to 2 am

Roger starts work at 7 o'clock every morning. Riding a battery car into the crowd in a hurry, the first stop was to a resident's house in Liuting New Village. The residents made an appointment two days ago and kept urging them. Roger promised to help him fix it first that day, and it took more than an hour.

In the morning 10, Roger, who just finished the maintenance of the second stop, hurried to the third stop, the beautiful garden building. Carrying a kit of 10 kilograms on his shoulder, his clothes were soaked with sweat and could be wrung out of water. After half a day's hard work, his face was like burning charcoal, and the heat rose from his head.

"Time is too tight! It's good to finish three repairs in the morning, and the maintenance list in the afternoon is also full. " Roger wiped the sweat from his face. "Now is the peak season for air conditioning maintenance. Now I have to work until 2 am every day. In this way, the appointments for the last two days are full. "

In an office on the seventh floor of the beautiful garden building, a vertical air conditioner is broken and there is no air conditioning. The outdoor unit of this air conditioner is installed on the outside of the south-facing window sill and works continuously in the sun. The temperature is very high. Roger climbed onto the windowsill to check, and as soon as his finger touched the cover plate, he immediately shrank back. It was "very hot".

Accustomed to aerial work.

The reporter looked down from the window sill on the seventh floor and felt a little dizzy, but Roger, who was checking the fault, had to lean out most of his body. After removing three panels, Roger was sweating profusely.

In order to measure the current of the compressor, Roger tied a safety rope, and an employee helped to pull the end of the safety rope in the house. Looking at Roger riding on the windowsill, with one foot on the fixed bracket of the window machine, most of him leaned out, and the white-collar worker in the office nervously called him: "Be careful!"

"Put a hundred hearts, I am used to such aerial work." Roger spoke easily, sweat dripping down his red cheeks.

He was less than 18 years old when he first worked high above the ground. At that time, he came to Ningbo from his hometown Nanchong, Sichuan. Before taking the first step, I made countless resolutions. I was so scared that my legs were weak and dizzy that I got used to it several times before I dared to get up. After climbing up, I couldn't see the ground at all

After half an hour, the air conditioner was troubleshooting, and Roger carefully added some refrigerant to the air conditioner. It was already noon 12 when the refreshing cool wind blew out of the air conditioner.

"There are countless air conditioners installed, but there is no one at home."

Roger is a piece-rate worker, and the money he receives from customers, excluding the cost of materials, is divided 50-50 with the company. It is the peak season. If you work 10 hour or more every day, you can get 10000 yuan a month. Of course, the monthly income in the off-season is much less. Roger is satisfied with such income.

Roger said that he went out to work after graduating from junior high school, and there was no clear goal at that time. Introduced by relatives, he learned the technology of air conditioning maintenance. From the apprentice six years ago to the solo operation now, the technology of air conditioning maintenance is becoming more and more proficient.

"I have installed countless air conditioners for my customers, but I still use electric fans at home!" Roger joked that he rented a small house in Wang Chun, and the current economic conditions are not extravagant enough to install air conditioning.

"In the next few years, I hope to learn technology better, and I guess I can only make a living by it in the future." In order to integrate into city life, Roger is slowly learning Ningbo dialect, demanding that he can at least understand it in order to better serve customers.

28 years service life of air conditioner 14 years.

Deng Yong, who is also an air conditioner repairman, is young at the age of 28, but he is a senior "old master" in Haishu Dazhong Household Appliances Maintenance Department.

At 6 o'clock in the morning, Deng Yong has already started his day's work in a resident's home in Xinyuan Community. In just 4 hours, he has completed the air conditioning installation task of three customers.

"In the last month, I have to complete 15 single tasks every day on average, and the time is very tight. I ran up and down the stairs. " Deng Yong said as he walked. Recently, it is the peak period of air conditioning installation and maintenance, and it runs around the clock every day. It was past 2 am when I got home at the latest.

"If there is an air conditioning installation platform, the installation is not difficult. The most difficult thing is to have bay windows. The air conditioner host should be placed under the bay window, and there is no place around to take over. " Deng Yong stood on the machine in the air conditioning window, wiped the sweat from his face with the corners of his work clothes and said.

Business backbone has the highest annual salary.

"We are doing service work, and dealing with all kinds of people is the most touching and regrettable." Deng Yong said frankly that what moved him was that many customers respected his work, and some would prepare tea in advance. When he came to the door, he saw that he was sweating and his hands were dirty when installing outdoors, and some customers would bring water to his mouth, making his heart warm.

However, sometimes when you come to repair air-conditioning faults, you will meet some people who don't pay maintenance fees. As a result, this order ran away in vain. In particular, customers will compare the online prices of some replaced air-conditioning parts, regardless of the labor value in Deng Yong, which also makes Deng Yong feel uncomfortable.

"I am the air conditioner with the highest annual salary in the company." Speaking of which, Deng Yong showed a proud look on his face. He fell in love with this city from the day he left his hometown 0/4 years ago.

Manager Deng of Zhongwei Jiaxiu mentioned that he is a rare talent who is full of affirmation, good in technical level and high in work efficiency. Company employees 15, 8 of whom enjoy the annual salary system, with a maximum of150,000 yuan. Deng Yong is a comprehensive business backbone, who can not only install and repair air conditioners, but also repair gas and household appliances, and has a special operation qualification certificate. "The original intention of establishing the annual salary system is to let core employees work for value and better serve customers." Manager Deng said.

Noon 12: 45, 15 minutes before the appointment. Before lunch, Deng Yong set off again with his toolkit on his back.

"I want to settle here."

Deng Yong, a native of Mengcheng, Anhui Province, came to Ning in 2002 and worked in the air-conditioning maintenance industry 14 years. Deng Yong is very excited about his career choice. By chance, he met the boss of this company, Manager Deng, who is a fellow villager in Anhui and has been in Ningbo for many years. Deng Yong said that at that time, Manager Deng advised himself to learn a skill and settle down in the future. Deng Yong started as an apprentice after joining the company, and began to work independently two years later.

Every summer, high temperature is the busiest season for installing and maintaining air conditioners. At this point, Deng Yong was too busy to go home. The 6-year-old son often hooks up with his father and asks to accompany him to the park. A "lie" that can be promised many times has not been fulfilled once. "I come home late every day and all I see is my son's sleeping face." Deng Yong said, and sat on the bed and looked at his son, saying sorry for countless times.

The lover doesn't say anything, but there are still some complaints in his heart. After all, the couple can't say a few words a day, and they can't even leave some time for their children on weekends. "If I am a customer, I also hope to be able to install and repair in the first time. What's more, I have to give my son money for school and a' wife book'. " When this is said, the lover can only silently support it.

"Although I still rent a house, I already have plans to buy a house." For the future, Duncan is full of dreams. After settling down, he will work harder and create a better life with his own hands.

Roger also carefully saved every penny, hoping that one day, "I can buy a small house, find a woman with vision and get married."
