Dear Sir or Madam...

Dear Office Air Conditioner,

Today was not a great day for you to decide to cut out.

You see, I have been very stressed out at work lately. I need to be as comfortable as possible to cope with my responsibilities and my inability to meet them. Sweaty, dear sir, is not comfortable. Small desk fans, even the high powered "turbo" variety were not made for multiple people to huddle around. And considering the small square footage of my cubicle, I did not appreciate the other bodies raising the temperature even more.

I also did not appreciate the fact that I spent more time in the bathroom this afternoon than I cared to since it was the coolest place on the floor. Especially since there is this one woman who always chooses 3PM as her time to....well, you know. Let's just say the bathroom is not the same for the rest of the day.

I also blame you for the slowness of my computer this afternoon. Even though I defragged and disk cleaned and deleted things I will probably actually need later, it still barely stuttered along contributing to my inability to meet my responsibilities. And thereby adding to my stress. I can only assume that it was hot and sweaty too.

So, Office Air Conditioner, thanks. Thanks a lot.

Sincerely,
Rachel

I think our air conditioner was working double time for your air conditioner. No matter what time of year, it's under 60 degrees. Oy.

yeah, ours pretty much is either not working or is blasting the air. No such thing as a happy medium apparently.

LOL That's tooo funny!
I also was miserable yesterday. Yes me, the girl who's always freezing. I actually had a fan on me!
And the 3pm lady.....lol...I think she also has a bathroom date around lunch. Because I always try to go about 10 minutes before lunch (to beat the crowds) and she always in there...Hee Hee..
