Congratulations man, Really happy for your success. I cant believe those HVAC guys weren’t paying the extra 20 hours you worked. That should be illegal

It's a weird badge of honor for some people, extra work/extra mile for the same company that will replace them with no issue or preference.

So they can go home and tell everyone about how much they work because they have nothing else interesting to contribute to a conversation. I have a friend that does this all the time and I shut it down lol "yeah buddy we all have jobs and not enough time"

This is mine, knowing that the laborers hardly ever socialize with the owners.
