Sorry for the unbearable heat in some areas of the building today. We have called technicians and hope to have it fixed sometime later this week.
In the meantime, it may be best to dress in layers.
Apologies again. We will update you as we fix the system.

Sorry everyone.
We’re still trying to fix our cooling system in the building. I know it’s uncomfortably hot in many areas and we’re working as quickly as possible to fix that.
Unfortunately, it will probably not be corrected until the end of the week.
Again, sorry and thanks for your patience.

    Stop thanking us for our patience and eliminate our need for having any. Fix it or we’ll set the building on fire…the temperature change would be nearly imperceptable.

  4. “Sorry for the unbearable heat in some areas of the building today….In the meantime, it may be best to dress in layers.” Am I missing something? To me it seems they’re telling you to wear multiple layers of clothes to protect yourself from the heat. Doesn’t that just seem idiotic?

  5. nope because if your wearing numerous layers you can take off or put on depending on whatever temperature it is where you are
