    I have nothing to contribute, but I wanted to complain about my coworkers. They under dress for how chilly the office is kept (76F, which really isn’t chilly) then they blast personal space heaters in their offices while the AC is on. I think it would be fine keeping it on 78 if we had ceiling fans, but for whatever reason I never see those in offices

      Okay, that’s more than just mildly irritating. That’s massively irritating.

      What if they’re dressed in a manner of which so they don’t have to change when they go back outside?

        That still doesn’t excuse that level of wastefulness whatsoever. Oh no, a mild inconvenience!

            I don’t disagree entirely but removing clothing stops being an option at some point and if I’m expected to get work done I’ll be far better at it if the temperature isn’t making me miserable

          Just carry half your wardrobe around in and out of the office with you every day. It’s common sense.

            Your fashion sense is your own but you might get a little overheated with half of your wardrobe. Unless you’re a real minimalist

      Why are US-Americans so stubborn when it comes to metric units? Use ur crappy units in ur country if u like, but on the Internet, most people are NOT from the US and therefore ur numbers mean shit all to us.
