I'm just wondering if 68 (maybe 66..) as the thermostats read is a normal building temp? It feels cold as hell to me, and I didn't used to be a wuss about being cold.

I would think 72 would be better... aren't we supposed to be saving money anyway?

Yes, that's way too cold.

You people sound like the menopausal women in my office.

hmmm...I would think the opposite. The menopausal women in our office, like it cranked down, something about constant hot flashes.

No way, that's like heaven. That's what I keep my house at as well.

Yeah, you'd think. Maybe they've already gone through it. They're always griping how cold it is and have their little mini-heaters running while I'm wearing a T-shirt.

My point was I usually never hear guys complain about the cold. Unless I'm watching Deadliest Catch and they're getting soaked and it's -50 wind chill.

sounds perfect to me

No, I like it at 60F.

 

[SampSon]

I wish it was that cold in my office.

My office is set at 72F, and it is slightly cool to me.
