I Had Surgery… Then Fired My Office Manager & Built Surge Protectors

Thursday morning. 5:56 AM. No service calls on the schedule. Two teeth extracted. Four dental implants installed. Jaw swollen. Talking like I’ve got marbles in my mouth…But Mikey Pipes is still in the shop.In this uncut episode of Mikey Pipes Uncensored, I’m post-op, sore, slightly out of it, and still showing up to work because that’s what business owners do. I talk about my dental surgery experience, why sedation was absolutely worth it, and how sometimes paying for quality service reminds you exactly why your own customers choose quality over cheap.Then we get into the real story: why Barbara’s name is no longer on the board.This one hits on business ownership, employee accountability, remote work abuse, dispatcher problems, phone calls being forwarded wrong, company property being mishandled, and why every small business owner needs structure, policy, and standards.And yes — the Mikey Pipes SPD-01 Surge Protection Device / Power Management System is AVAILABLE NOW.These units are hand-built by Mikey Pipes in New York and are designed for HVAC equipment protection, inverter systems, ductless mini splits, heat pumps, and sensitive modern HVAC electronics.Variants of the MP SPD-01 are available now at:👉 mikeypipes.com/shop100% of proceeds go to Mikey Pipes Philanthropy, our nonprofit helping provide free or low-cost plumbing, heating, and cooling services to people in need.We also talk about recent philanthropy work, including free and heavily subsidized HVAC installs, tankless combi boiler replacements, ductless mini split systems, and how the trades can still make a real difference in local communities.Want to become an ACiQ Dealer and install the same equipment we trust in the field?👉 Sign up here: aciq.com/mikeypipesFor plumbing, heating, cooling, HVAC repair, boiler repair, mini split installation, tankless water heaters, heat pump systems, emergency HVAC service, and expert service on Long Island, Nassau County, Queens, and Western Suffolk:📞 Pipe Doctor Home Services☎️ 516-348-6300🌐 pipedoc.netServing Long Island, NY including Woodmere, Hewlett, Lawrence, Cedarhurst, Valley Stream, Lynbrook, Oceanside, Rockville Centre, Garden City, Mineola, Great Neck, Manhasset, Roslyn, Port Washington, Merrick, Bellmore, Wantagh, Seaford, Massapequa, Queens, Nassau County, and Western Suffolk.Support the charity and grab a limited Mikey Pipes poster:🔥 $42.50 deliveredIncludes stickers, pen, card, and magnet100% of proceeds go to charity.Payment options for posters/donations:PayPal / Zelle: mike@mikeypipes.comVenmo: @PipeDoctorCashApp: $mikeypipesnyLearn more about our nonprofit:👉 pipes4free.orgBuy SPD-01 variants here:👉 mikeypipes.com/shopSubscribe if you love real-world HVAC, plumbing, business ownership, unfiltered shop talk, service technician lessons, small business accountability, and making the trades great again.#MikeyPipes #HVACLife #SurgeProtectionMusic from #InAudio: https://inaudio.org/Track Name *Fly AwayCHAPTERS00:00 Post-Op Mikey Pipes Reporting For Duty00:45 Two Teeth Extracted & Four Implants Installed02:15 Sedation Was Worth Every Penny04:30 Paying For Quality Service Hits Different06:00 Why Barbara’s Name Is Off The Board07:30 Remote Work Does NOT Work For This Position09:10 Company Truck, iPad & Phone Left Unsecured10:40 Missed Calls, Bad Dispatching & No Voicemail12:20 Business Owners Need Standards14:05 New Office Help Starting Today15:00 MP SPD-01 Surge Protection Device AVAILABLE16:15 100% Of Proceeds Go To Charity17:00 ACiQ, US Boiler & Giving Back To Families In Need
