Brrr.It’s November, so I should not be suffering from allergies. I’m also 99% sure I do not have a cold. And yet I am sneezing and blowing my nose a lot, particularly when the office does not have heat like today. I sat hunched over my degree audits in a hoodie and fingerless gloves like some sort of modern day Bob Cratchitt, trying to ignore the breeze that was blowing across my desk from the window. When we eventually move to the new building, the one we all hate already because we will be crammed for space since no one thought ahead and took proper measurements? I can only hope that there is heat. That’s the only chance the new building has of competing with our current building, but regulated temperatures could go a long way towards closing the gap. 6 comments to Brrr. |

It’s probably that dry air that’s got your sinuses running! Cold air is dry naturally, but when we heat it, we dry it out even more. Not that the heat is an issue yet, but maybe at home!
I think you’re allergic to work.
You shouldn’t worry about the new building. With the team constrained to the smaller space, the heat your bodies radiate will help in keeping the staff warm.
BTW, I’m going to be in NYC next week (Sun-Thurs). If you’re free, let me know and we can get together.
I feel your pain. I work in an office that’s so cold there are more days than not when I’m wearing TWO sweaters even during the middle of summer when it’s 90 degrees outside. Now that we’ve moved downstairs, it’s not quite as bad as it used to be but it still isn’t good.
See if the sprinkler system will let you get away with building a fire in a steel wastebasket? It probably won’t work but it’s a thought.
Jamie~I think the same…I turned the humidifier on last night.
Grace~I concur. Now if only I could get a doctor’s note that says that.
Vince~Thanks, that’s cheerful. See you Sunday!
FD~Summer is bad here, too, because most of the women in my office are “of a certain age” and hot flashing badly. So I freeze because they crank the AC up.
Pandora~Nice thought. Because maybe in the process I could burn the horrible building down.
