    Meh, I don’t think people can complain about heat unless they work in it everyday

    In AZ they figured out how to do heat right, every bay has two or three massive fans with misters mounted to it. The whole shop once you enter a bay door drops like a solid 20-25 degrees in temp. 80 degrees is nice

    I just don’t see having the right to complain when all you do is walk from your car to your cooked office building

    Does anyone here do that? Most of us like to work on stuff and be outside, plus the fucking car cooks too and the AC even good AC takes up to an hour to catch up.

    Looks pretty robust the way the liner is designed. Only thing you really have to keep track of are your tubes to the cooler, they aren't large though and they crush down so you can step on them

    Half the people here are fridge repairmen, in ac houses so yes.

    I’m not talking about here specifically, just people in general

    I suppose you're right, but if they don't complain about the heat they're gonna complain about the Utahn that's ragging on them even though his climate is mild.

    What is this, the 1800s?! My college ran on steam basically, all the buildings were heated by a central steam plant. Made some neat noises

    Steam is the easiest for heating. Most big buildings have boiler rooms to heat them.

    Corrugated paper is made with lots of heat and moisture. Steam is showered down onto the product for 14 hours a day. Really sucks when one of those corrugators breaks, cause yours truly gets to play a part in fixing it.
