Pilot light on furnace won’t stay on

So I am sitting waiting for a call back from the heating company that just did a complete service and inspection on my steam boiler. My pilot light is out and will not stay lit. Any advice as tenants are freezing….

My guess would also be the thermocouple but I need to get a heating company out ASAP to replace

Well of course my heating company whom I had just paid over $500 to service my furnace about 3 weeks ago will not return phone calls.
