Tybo Posted September 1, 2010 Report Posted September 1, 2010 There is a reason I don't own fire arms.Today was one of those reasons. The next I live my life in A/C person come up to me and ask if it's hot enough. I'm going to lose it.IF you think this is polite when a man is kneeling on a 14l Engine sweating hard enough to produce steam to come up from the engine. it is not.Or is it just a sick joke. This isn't just me that I've seen going over the top with this more then obvious. So do use a favour in passing. If you have nothing to say a wave will be just fine. Thanks Paul P.S. This goes for the cold to.
solopaddler Posted September 1, 2010 Report Posted September 1, 2010 My office is currently a frosty 20 celcius. How about you, hot enough for ya? (Glad there's no clock towers near me )

lew Posted September 1, 2010 Report Posted September 1, 2010 (edited) Lots of us worked in hot places Paul, ya just to have cool thoughts Edited September 1, 2010 by lew
GBW Posted September 1, 2010 Report Posted September 1, 2010 (edited) most people say things like that to you Paul because they don't have a clue what to say and they feel it's a conversation starter. me on the other hand, I would say "is your a/c broke, cause it's hotter the hell in here" and give you a grin... on the bright side, I don't have to sit with you on the GO train...

glen Posted September 1, 2010 Report Posted September 1, 2010 Its snowing in Montreal? Soon the temperature will be just right. To bad it only last for a week then it is too cold.
aplumma Posted September 1, 2010 Report Posted September 1, 2010 Guess were froze over too :devil: I hear the rant Paul it gets awful hot not only contending with the engine heat but the sun and all. If it helps it was 97 D F here today on the blacktop. Art
livinisfishin Posted September 1, 2010 Report Posted September 1, 2010 Attic I was playing around in was 136 degrees F. Get this ... The customer pulls out her laser thermometer just to point that out to me for no reason. Lol kinda the same deal except I was installing a gas fireplace how ironic also.

BUSTER Posted September 2, 2010 Report Posted September 2, 2010 I work outside everyday winter/summer, If I only had a $1 everytime someone asked me.......
nofish4me Posted September 2, 2010 Report Posted September 2, 2010 How about the poor old ( me, old ) A/C guy? Hear all the complainin' and whinnin' about heat, but never get a thanks for fixin' things. By the way, I'm always working in the hottest temps, no A/C on the mall roof, backyard, etc.,etc..
Whitespinnerbait Posted September 2, 2010 Report Posted September 2, 2010 There is a reason I don't own fire arms.s. The next I live my life in A/C person come up to me and ask if it's hot enough. I'm going to lose it. I think there's places you can join to control your anger....
