    There are two things I love about winter. Needing to fight to stay warm and getting automatically cooled when working. Seriously in winter you need to be proactive to stay warm.

      Yeah, if you have an active job it’s great, if you’re something like a crossing guard it sucks. I work in IT and we had two ACs in my office: one for the whole office and one just for our room because during the day there could be 10-12 people in there with 24 monitors on and 12 PCs running. During the night shift it was 2 people 2 PCs and 4 monitors max. We couldn’t turn off either AC. My coworker and I would literally sit there with winter jackets and gloves on because we were so damn cold. I ended up figuring how to use an Allen Wrench to turn down the room AC using the wall panel.
