Office Etiquette Question
« on: December 18, 2007, 08:15:13 AM »

so, let's say hypothetically that every single day you are the last person in (that doesn't matter in and of itself, particularly as this person is also hypothetically the last one out).  do you have the right to walk in, and 2 minutes later  change the A/C/heat settings that the other 3 people have agreed on and are enjoying for the previous 3-4 hours?

If the guy signs your check, or is somehow directly tied into you maintaining gainful employment, then yes he can set the thermostat wherever he likes.  If not, I'm all for taking the chilly candyass outside for a beatdown.

That sounds like the kind of *bunghole* that steals people's half full grocery cart while they are away picking out some cheese.

This may be the single biggest complaint I hear from cubicle/office type peoples. The first complaint out of my wifes lips re: her new job in a cube.

I'm guessing he went a/c versus heat. If that's the case, terminate with extreme prejudice.

 Air quotes picking out some cheese. Air quotes

What is the thermostat interceder's status in the lab?

And I know it's a crazy idea, but ... has anyone tried actually speaking to said individual about the phenomenon?  One guy cold v. three people hot ...
