My two coworkers and I have different ideas of a comfortable office temperature. It's a small office, and the door is usually closed to reduce noise from the cube farm outside. Tomorrow i will take a thermometer to work to determine how warm it is. I don't want to subject them to unreasonable temperatures, but last Friday it was quite warm and Ian had his floor heater on. That was fine and dandy with Rebekah, but she's always cold no matter what. I just suffered and struggled through the afternoon.
The way I see it, if they are cold they can put on a sweater or a jacket. I can't very well take off my clothes to cool down. Trust me, nobody wants that, haha. I'll be wearing light pants and a t-shirt all winter long and still be dying in the office.
I just googled ideal room temperature. Most studies say it's between 68 and 73 degrees, some as high as 75. It had to have been close to 80 in the office on Friday. We don't have a thermostat to adjust. We must call the boiler room and request a change. I don't want to just do it without telling my coworkers. But they will probably get an attitude.
Any advice as to how I should handle this?
