If anyone is interested - commercial HVAC service pays extremely well depending on where you live. I rarely have to work overtime (although I do like to) and it’s not backbreaking (it’s a lot more mental/problem solving). It’s union work. Not to say it can’t be stressful, but it’s the best job I’ve had and I’ve worked in a bunch of industries. I’m college educated as well, but don’t need any degree for this work. Wish I would’ve joined this industry a long time ago.
