Don't forget to tell them you're going home regardless if it is too cold.

there is a wireless thermostat in the office and down at foot level it is 13.5 at one part of the office, at desk level its 16C.
The person who sits there had coat, ear muffs, heated usb fingers gloves and 3 pairs of socks on.
Yet they wont do anything about it.Comment

after my rant to the HSE manager about the temperature they suggested that I should wear extra socks.
That was a red rag to a bull !
I copied the section from the HSE website about what a company should provide. CC'd it to line manager and directors and told them to buy more heaters.
10 mins after the email was sent a little heater has miraculous appeared and its being passed around the office and people who are cold are getting a blast of hot air
