Heat Miser vs Snow Miser
I work in a small office with several twenty-something princesses. Our desks are lined next to one another, and we sit in close proximity to one another for eight hours a day, every day. Last winter, on cold days, we would use space heaters next to our desks to keep warm. Now, Spring is here, yet while it is 60-70 degrees outside, one princess in particular is still using a space heater and it turns the office into a sauna. She sits directly next to me, and everyday, I’m dripping with sweat by noon, while she is wrapped up in a shawl. I should also add that she wears short dresses and skirts, and often kicks her shoes off under her desk, surely only adding to her chilled state.
When I finally got up the nerve and requested she turn off the heater and wear some socks, she told me to mind my own business and to “get a life”. Despite complaints of being hot, the other princesses laughed.
Tomorrow, i am arriving early to the office, and hiding the space heaters.
As you well should… just keep in mind the princesses will come after you for blood. That’s what princesses do. But I totally side with you.
