Typical...

So, every Monday when my colleagues and I arrive in the office, we are always complaining about how cold it is. That is because the heat gets turned way down over the weekend, and then our Facilities Service team doesn't turn it back up until around 6am, which doesn't give the building enough time to heat up.

Rather than turning the heat on earlier (as I have to think we would do back at home where things are "normal"), here is the solution in our Facilities Newsletter:

Climate control
When you come back in the office after a cosy Christmas, the temperature may feel low around the office. We assure you that it is regulated to within accepted levels. If you are cold, an extra layer of clothing could well be the answer.

Way to go, Dutchies!! Couldn't help but post this... it kind of represents my frustrations in general. Rather than fixing a problem, just deal with it!

Wishing you all a happy (and warm) Holiday! :)
