I have to admit that getting an instant study thermal gun was a surprise.
- And getting it at the office Christmas get-together was even more of a surprise.
It turned out that the entire crew gave me this and it took a minute to understand why, but once I got it and started grinning, the entire crew fell to pieces! For sure, I am the temperature control sheriff in the office. And I make no bones about it. It’s not a job responsibility that I asked for or ever wanted but it’s one that fell to me. I had been charged with reducing overhead costs in the office. So of course the temperature control setting was a target, while I’m not a confrontational person, I wasn’t having it with people yanking the temperature control all over. I appealed to them nicely, but then I finally just had the heating and A/C dealer put in a smart temperature control and I was the only one with the manual override code. It was clever and I absolutely did find it sort of hilarious. However, I also found the source of a puzzling draft in our condo that has bedeviled me and made our heating costs soar. The thermal gun allowed me to find the spot where the cold air was pouring inside. And that was one of the windows that we had replaced with double paned windows when we moved in. I got the window dealer back out here to properly insulate it and the condo is cozier now. Plus, I’ll be saving a bit on my heating costs as well.
