Warm Offices Boost Productivity
bluelip writes "It looks like the real reason for offshoring is corporations looking for warmer weather. Instead of paying the energy bills to crank up the heat in the office to a more productive temperature, the offices are moving to warmer areas. This article shows a 44% error reduction and 150% increase in productivity for those working in warmer offices. Will this increase in output be enough to convince my boss to pay for us to vacation-commute from a tropical island?"
Right now its like a sauna in my office that I share with a few other people and I'm not getting much done. Warm offices make me uncomfortable.
Instead of drinking coffee in the morning, try blood, it sounds like it might work better for you. Or at least a bloody mary. ;)

77 is horrible if you're wearing a T-Shirt, a dress-shirt, and a tie. Keep it at 70 or lower. If people are cold, too bad: they can wear more clothes. People who always bitch about it being "too cold" and try to get the temp increased are one of my big pet peeves. My dorm rooms were always scorching, even in the winter. Damn Temperature Fascists.
Lose some weight, fatty.
When I lived in a dorms, my roommate was a polar bear like yourself who kept the AC as low as it would go year round! Even in the winter when the central heat kicked on and we were all cold and shit, he'd kick that thing on. Crazy.
If you're wearing t-shirt, dress-shirt, and a tie, 75 should be fine. If it isn't, you need to shed some of that fat, tubby.
