My office also happens to be the same room with the networking equipment. So it's a constant 20 C. So it's pretty damn chilly and I keep a sweater in my office.

What about you guys?

My work insist on having the heat on full blast all the time, be it summer or winter. My g/f on the other hand has no heating in her work so it tends to be quite chilly come this time of year.

In my last job there was a bit of a strike because of the inactive (claimed to be broken) heaters. Once people stopped working the heaters miraculously started working again.

Interestingly, i was waiting for a job to finish printing yesterday in the room with all the networking hubs and printers, and just like olePigeon said, it was chilly.

It's always hot when it needs to be cool, and it's really chilly when it needs to be warm. Damn the luck!

Couldn´t said it better, It´s an old building, acceptable in the summer, mostly too cold during winter time

The <> signs in the poll are backwards.
Anyway, buildings here at school seem to be kept at 68 to 70 F (20 to 21 C).

We have a um, large secretary that keeps complaining how HOT it is no matter if the rest of us is wearing double layers.

And this is in the summer.

Of course when she goes to use the bathroom one of us will change the thermostat.

She eventually changes it back... but we atleast get a hour of decent office temp.

I think they are going to put a stop to her monopolizing the thermostat.

Ok, Japan does suck for this kind of thing. No air conditioning, no decent heating. Its always dress for the weather, or suffer. Actually, it really is just all suffer.
