    Misery

    Outside temp: 68
    Inside temp: 85

    It smelled bad enough when it was 72 in here. It was like a reverse cave effect or something going through the front doors. There was a wall of heat.

    Also, somebody thought they would cook some bacon on my floor. WTF? Nothing like the smell of greasy microwaved bacon first thing in the morning when you walk into the 85 degree office. Gah.

    I can't work in these conditions. Maybe I need to go break someone's ankles.

    Re: Misery

    I guess the cooling system must have broken down this weekend (ya think?). I wish there was a thermostat I could control. In fact, i wish there was a window that would open. That would solve a lot.

    I went and sat in the server room for a while to cool down. I may be heading there again soon. I was actually expecting it to get somewhat cooler in here.

    Re: Misery

    I'm with ya Norm. The A/C for my office and the one next to it (which is used for storage) is broken. Has been since last fall. And the one window I have is sealed shut. GRRRRRRRR They keep promising to get it fixed, but so far I guess I haven't bitched loud enough to actually get anything done. Course it doesn't help that our maintenance guy sleeps in the back corner office most days. As it gets hotter, I guess I'll just gripe more.

    Re: Misery

    The HVAC units in large buildings are a total pain to keep set right. Especially when you share a thermostat with several other offices. There are parts of the clinic that are like an icebox and others an oven.

    The air in my office goes off and on all day and is very, very loud. And my office often feels like a server room . . .


    And Norm, I'd say keep a small fan at your desk if you can . . .

    UPDATE: It feels like it might be about 84 now. If the AC gets fixed, I guarantee it will be about 60 this afternoon and I'll have to turn on the space heater or something.

    Norm, it's just a psychological trick. Keep the workers uncomfortable and they'll be more alert and productive.

    Go kick your boss in the knees and report back. We'll wait right here...

    It's management's ploy to shed a few pounds off you overweight, underworked state employees. Just focus on the alphas, ignore the deltas. In with the good, out with the bad. Breathe with me Norm...............
