I walked into work this morning at 9:15.  This is what temperature it was inside:

its-cold2
It was 58.2 when the first person came in to the office.  Here is my response to this situation:

its-cold
Another piece of coal, please!?!?!?!??!  You think I’m exaggerating?  Here are some of my other co-workers:

Need I say more? Happy Festivus everyone!

        That ridiculous! Forget the coal in the stocking you need the coal to burn a fire right there in the office.

          This is hilarious…you guys look like me and Anna from Diary of an Eccentric my office mate. We are the ones bundled up in the office and everyone else is toasty warm on the other side of the office…they say it is too warm and of course they are on our thermostat…so we are in the deep freeze here.

            It looks like everyone has at least two coffee cups – those can double as hand warmers too!

                Haha! Funnily enough my workmates don’t look disimilar despite the fact that we are expecting a temp of 80F. The air conditioning is really bad in our office, but then we can just stand next to the windows to get a little bit of warmth.

                  The update is that after plying us with free coffee and donuts, the building management was able to fix whatever it was that caused the problem. So, I was able to thaw out after lunch.
