And by people I mean women. Not that men don't get cold, but it seems like 99 out of 100 women are constantly cold in the office. I don't get it, they have these little space heaters at their desks cranking, and they are constantly messing with the office thermostat cranking it up all the way, and I mean all the way.
It's literally like a sauna in my office today. I just went and turned down the thermostat, but I guarantee it won't be long before I hear someone say "I'm cold", and they'll crank it up to full blast again.
Control of the thermostat is a constant battle here.

It's because they come to work in bikinis and have little-to-no body fat. It gets cold in the office when the Coors Light train comes through so I feel the ladies have every right to turn it up. :biggthump

Hahahaha. That's too funny, because I'm sweating my ass off in a training room right now. We're in a computer lab with no windows and poor circulation. If we turn down the heat it gets to cold we can see our breath (I'm fine with that), but if we turn it up it turns into Africa in here. There is no middle ground.

hehe. I couldn't take it any longer, so I got a fan. Now, it blasts directly on me all day. :D

I can't have heat in my office because of this weird drainage problem outside my window. I have this window that is in the basement, yet if leaves fill up the gutter outside, I can honestly see water rising above my window! Shit, I just remembered my camera is here. I'll take a picture.

That window behind my desk has had almost a foot of water over it before. It seals when I put it down. During the summer I have a lounge chair and table outside of it in the gutter. I'm cool.

I know. I'm taking pictures of my ultra nerd office. I'll make sure I don't unclog the gutters outside and then put fish out there and give you guys a picture WORTH seeing.

They got you working in the basement? That can be good can it (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bBrYlVjAGGA)?

I've told them that if they move my office one more time, I'm going to burn the place down.
At least I kept my Swingline stapler because it didn't bind up as much.
Honestly, this is a bad ass office. I used to basically have one in a closet. It doesn't look big, but behind me was a couch, two chairs and a coffee table.
