5 WAYS TO STAY SUPER-COOL IN YOUR OFFICE
Posted on - August 9, 2022Another heatwave – anyone still denying climate change?
Well even the most ardent conspiracy theorist – completely convinced there is no such thing as ‘global warming’ – will still be sweltering in the office right now.
However, there are several things you can do to make things a little more bearable. Here are 5 of the best:
What can you do to keep cool in the office?
We’ve been in the solar control game for 50 years so know a thing or two and set a team of our best people the task of finding 5 ways to stay cool at work.
So, you don’t have to.
We’re just nice like that.

TURN THE AIR CON UP TO 11
Obvious? Maybe.
But — effective. Get whoever manages your air-con to turn that baby all the way up and break off the dial.
If 10 is maximum – then you want it one more colder.
You want it the colderist-ist possible.
Tell them you want it even colder than a cold thing.

STAY AT HOME
Working from home is after all a ‘thing’ now – so why not?
Rather than enduring the stifling heat of your oppressive office oven — just don’t turn up at work at all.
Your boss can hardly complain. If he/she/they/it hasn’t got the common decency to ensure all employees have optimum working conditions, then they only have themselves to blame.
Research shows how productivity drops dramatically when temperatures soar- and accidents increase. So — in fact it’s counter-productive to make people work in an office that’s just too hot anyway.
You’re better off at home.
…unless of course your home is struggling with solar control issues through your windows and doors, or conservatory roof….

GET A NEW JOB
Yep.
That’s right.
Straight to the point.
If it’s too hot in your office — move to one that’s cooler!
Honestly — come on — you hate this job, right?
How long have you worked there now?
And they STILL haven’t realized how awesome you are!?
You’re hot, bothered and just not taking it anymore.
Hand in your notice, tell the boss it’s been lovely, but you need to ‘find yourself’.
Go for that job at the florists.
B&Q are hiring.
Maybe a paper-round or something?
Shelf stacking at Morrisons doesn’t pay much- but it has wicked air-con…

WEAR LESS CLOTHING
Marks idea (obviously).
Having been championing the ‘Mankini Mondays’ concept for a while now (frankly we thought it had been abandoned at the last brainstorming meeting — but there he is every Monday. He swears it was agreed…) his thinking is to expand that to deal with workplace-heat issues.
He’s come up with a sort of crib sheet of how much/little to wear Vs temperature as an ‘easy guide’ for work mates.
It’s really hot today – and both Mark and Don are in the office — so, fairly disturbing stuff for any casual observer.
Be worse tomorrow — even hotter.
Open-plan office.
Maybe this idea is not for everyone…
