It would be so much simpler!<br /><br />Living by the sea must be lovely! I grew up in a hot, humid place. It was misery! Where I live now is hot only for a couple of months each year, and never humid. Of course, location is becoming less relevant these days... modern heating systems mean buildings can feel like ovens no matter where they are! :PJ.Banehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17195276109146618481noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9176007711635280067.post-36545104898745066402015-12-10T01:29:30.540-07:002015-12-10T01:29:30.540-07:00I read this and nodded in complete understanding -...I read this and nodded in complete understanding - I'm also someone who 'runs hot'. Perhaps we are lycanthropes?! <br /><br />I worked in an office of people who were constantly cold yet would turn up to work in a vest and turn the AC up to 25 degrees. I was constantly being caught turning it down to 19. A manager agreed that hot people could sit by windows - but we couldn't open them because it scuppered the AC. Then another manager decided to reorganise us and I ended up in the mid swelter point of the room. After I passed out they gave me a fan....<br /><br />It's nice and cold where I live by the sea. I think I'd melt into a puddle anywhere hot! <br /><br />Jane (breaking the Angel)Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15769413146127393566noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9176007711635280067.post-44409475306162798322015-12-08T22:21:47.219-07:002015-12-08T22:21:47.219-07:00It's so annoying having to wear summer clothin...It's so annoying having to wear summer clothing year-round. I thought it might be different after moving to a place where people live for winter sports... but no, all the buildings are overheated here, too. And when I say I'm too hot, people look at me like I've suddenly sprouted another head. :PJ.Banehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17195276109146618481noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9176007711635280067.post-9182670820813003392015-12-08T22:10:46.157-07:002015-12-08T22:10:46.157-07:00People have a funny definition of "freezing.&...People have a funny definition of "freezing." <br /><br />Ha ha!

Facilities is willing to make adjustments to the HVAC, but people around me have been complaining that they're too cold (at 75 degrees). These are the same people who spend their weekends snow skiing in the frigid temperatures at 11,000 feet. :P<br /><br />I have two fans, and they do help. One is on the floor, tilted upward so it blows up my skirt when I'm standing. :D Ha ha!

That's what sweaters are for, people! Even set at 17C at night I'm too hot, but I'm afraid we'll kill the plants in the sunroom if I set it any lower.

I had to go with bare legs and remove layers down to a shirt!!! Ridiculous! And not good for your body!!!<br /><br />I always used to be cold, now I get too hot a lot and I miss being cold so much!

I also much prefer cool to warm, and I LOATHE hot. (You can add all the layers you want, but you can only take so much off!!) Where I work, either maintenance or the management has decided that the heat needs to be on all the time, even though it's only in the 40's or 50's outside (we don't get snow here, BTW), and there is SUN. So in my office, which has windows, it is now between 75 and 78 degrees every day, and I have NO control over it. If I wear sweaters, I roast! But my van's heater has been broken for years, so I have to bundle up going to and from work or I freeze. <br /><br />Can you bring fans to work for your work space, or borrow some from them? That might help at least a little.Lucretiahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07489662765492879926noreply@blogger.com
