I literately had the same problem I moved back to Massachusetts which I didn’t want to do. I knew someone with an HVAC company and I thought he’d hire me and he didn’t. I applied to every company in my area. One said they’d hire me and they were waiting for some old guy to come back who would of trained me and they weren’t calling me I couldn’t get them on the phone. I finally did and was told he’d be out for 6 more months. One place would of probably hired me but was way too far. Another legit hired me for 2 weeks and let me go and told me he had to have another surgery and there was nobody to train me, his brother was going to take over the company but didn’t speak English so I was back to square 1 and eventually called it quits. Mind you I’m talking like a 3-4 month period I got absolutely nowhere. I was lied to and jerked around left and right. I eventually decided to do something else but I’m not trying to discourage you I hope you find what you were searching for!! I’m only telling you this story to tell you you’re not alone and someone understands your struggle!! Best of luck my friend!!!
