feels like the Alps

me 'n carol
Early this year, we were complaining that the air condition in the office does not release the temperature that it suppose to provide. While this was being repaired by the administration, the management bought electric fans to keep us from smelling like shit.. i mean sweat. Months have passed, took my maternity leave, gave birth and came back to a working air condition. But this time the temperature was more than we asked for.. its freezing are brains and asses..its like I'm in Swiss Alps everyday. I got cough and runny nose for the first two months when I got back to work. The problem with an office inside the mall is that the air condition is centralize and we can't do anything but get used to it and bring out those jackets and pashminas.

A day at the office looks like this:

I can sympathize with the cold office situation. Mine is the same way, so I have to have a sweater with me all the time even in the summer. Actually the higher the temp outside, the more the AC cranks up so it gets to be freezing inside, and I have to put on my portable heater under my desk :D What a waste of energy, ha?

That's same case at work. That's why I always wear a jacket or a sweater plus stockings or socks too para hindi lamigin. and I drink lots of hot tea.

Imagine how we can save mother earth if all these companies start smarting up and conserve energy.
