There is a twenty degree difference between outside and inside

Why are office buildings always so fricking cold? The place I sit in to do research (which is a computer lab, so we don't need to keep living things at a specific temperature or anything) is always around 60 to 65 degrees. Outside it's a gorgeous 75 degrees, going to get up to 80--however, on days I work I have to wear a sweater, and sometimes a jacket. Hmph, my summer clothes are all going to waste.

Find your lab's thermostat, jack it up to 73, and then tape it shut. Worked for me!

Everyone will assume it's taped shut for a reason and won't touch it.

Unless it's one of those openey ones. Then you'll just have to play thermostat war a lot.

Unfortunately the entire Clark Center is on central heating/cooling-no individual thermostats. Bah.
