38 degrees

Its offically the hottest day in Oct in Australia on record, being 38 degrees. And its not yet summer. Today in the warehouse, the most said phrase was 'its hot in here isn't it'. Well duh. What do you expect? We don't actually have an air-con unit in the warehouse, but the warehouse office has a A/C unit which goes to a minimum of... 18 degrees. Since we don't actually have 4 walls, the cold air actually escapes. The wall is actually clear plastic strips. Its to effect easier access, since there isn't a single 'door', but its all of the length of 4 meters. But that means its very hard to maintain the 18 degrees. Thats the temporary relief we get when we get back to our seats after working the warehouse. Better than nothing, right? The service people actually have an industrial strenth AC unit... its around 17 degrees in there! And their space is about 8 times as big as our office in the warehouse... -_- open plan as well. So yeah... thats cool. And the office upstairs... needless to say they have a better air-con system. Ducted. Went up there for a few mins to deliver some boxes... and can feel the difference - maybe 1-2 degrees cooler than the service area. Also spent a lot of time replenishing body fluid... need to, in this heat. Also, had a lot of items to put into the spare parts. And there's already stuff in there... had to cram it all in... over 50 items, each different -_-. Fun, right. You can feel my sarcasm flow off the screen :P. But thats just me. And my collegue of course... having to ship out many items. So, naturally, we OT today as well. Thats now 3 days in a row we've OTed... Might be a trend? Who knows... also I need to get more media, but the cheaper ones got bought today by the very fast service guy... he sure has spare cash lying about, since some of the items he buys aren' cheap. And we can see what he uses to pay... and its not a card. Oh well, maybe I can buy 50 off him since you don't really need 200, but then again, I probably would... 200 x .7 = 140 gigs... currently around 65 gigs of anime on bro's comp... need to burn, or get another HDD... -_- ahhh its another dilemma... :P
