Quarrel over air conditioner

[Alanbileysfeathercut]

Ironically I'm sitting here in a hospital waiting room with an air conditioner off and I'm tempted to put it on .

I'm predominantly office based now, but trust me, climate control worries in an office beats 2am in the snow whilst wrestling with an IBC at risk of overpressurising and covering you in hot acid.

try working outside in 30 degree heat being forced to wear a long sleeve hi viz jacket , hard hat and trousers and site manager actually expecting you to be able to perform as usual …

air conditioners ?? !!! pffffft

This, flippin office tarts.

Clearly no body has any work to do ...........

If it's hot enough outside to make you need to reduce the temperature inside it's no use opening the windows. If the air conditioner's on you should keep doors
and windows closed. I live in Melbourne where the temperature during the day can range from 10c to 40+c and I have my aircon set to an ambient 20c.
That's if I have it on at all, which I only do when it's very hot or very cold.

Do you fight with your collegues over the degree of the air conditioner or whether to turn it on or off (rather windows etc) It happens constantly to us, mostly girls object saying it has become too cold now, so that only 25C or smth is tolerable, a lower degree well then they hate it and protest. It is not real fighting obviously, jokingly but still they mean it and go get the remote control lol

How is in your office?

Well known fact that women don't have a properly functioning internal thermostat.
They only have 2 temps;
'Whiney too hot'
and
'Whiney too cold'

Air Con is sexist, didnt you know?.

Air conditioning in your office is sexist. True story

It may be warm outside but in offices up and down the country, women are frozen stiff while men enjoy the air con. Radhika Sanghani unpicks the sexist AC war

Im so glad I don’t work with people.

Never worked in a office but have done lots of work in offices and the people who work in them i have noticed complain and have domestics over the slightest things
the best thing to do is put screens up it quietens them down like putting a blanket over a budgie cage

I share an office with a fella and a woman. Us lads like it 20 degrees. She wants it warmer ??...she wears a jumper !!! Damn straight !!!

Air conditioner power consumption is killing the planet you bad mefs. Just be uncomfortable once in a while.

And in the winter, women, bugger fashion wear another layer, be active and lay off the thermostat.

Quarrel is definitely an under rated and under used word.

 

[Desaparecido]

The problem is some people don't understand how air con works. Putting it on the lowest setting when it's hot, getting too cold so either turning it off or putting it on a much higher setting, and repeat.

Or opening the windows when it's on as well

Then the AC freezes and breaks, causing a leak the next day.

Not having a go, people need to be taught how AC works.
