Vandalized
We've been having a lot of trouble at work lately with the temperature. Even worse, apparently everyone thinks that the thermostat in my office controls the whole building. I had four people come into my office today to adjust the temperature. I'm hot, I'm cold..up, down, up, down.
We will all have freaking hypothermia in a week.
So finally my boss comes into my office and says, "I'm going to fix this once and for all." His office is a damn meat locker so I don't care. I'm sitting there, working away while he pulls out his tool set and takes a pair of pliers to the thermostat. (He'd vandalized it earlier in the day while I was out of my office, ripping off the gauge where it shows what temperature it actually is. I walked into my office to find the gauge sitting on my chair.)
So finally I stood up and said, "What are you doing?" Then I saw him cranking the little circular lever-gauge with the pliers and said "WHAT ARE YOU DOING???" I then touched the lever below the one he was destroying and said, "This is how you adjust the temperature."
Yeah. He went to Georgia Tech.
I plan to go to work tomorrow in a bikini and bring a blanket, just to plan for both extremes. I have no clue what to expect when I get there.
