During this time of the year when the holidays come there is a lot that needs to get at household and at work.
At household I have the stress of wrapping presents, decorating and preparing food for our family Christmas meal.
Sporadically my children will help me decorate but they will place our Christmas decorations in the most unusual places so I stopped asking them to help me. At work since I am a secretary, I have to make sure that all of our forms are revised, and are distributed to the people throughout the office. My nice friend and I had our annual end of the year meeting. There was about twenty of us in our meeting room and it was so hot and stuffy. I’m not sure if I was getting concerned because it was almost my turn to speak but I felt like with the amount of people in the room my boss should have turned the air conditioning on. I was start to sweat and I could see my coworkers doing the same! There came a point in the meeting where I went to the front of the room, to the thermostat, and switched the heat off and turned the button towards “cool.” When I learn the thermostat it learn 77 degrees fahrenheit! That’s why I was dripping with sweat so much. As I turned to head back to my seat my coworkers were clapping for me because I turned the heat down. As I sat down one of my coworkers who was sitting next to me said: “I’m so happy you turned the thermostat down, I think my friend and I were all too afraid to do it.” This is because our boss isn’t really nice, but I wasn’t afraid. I’m not going to suffer from a boiler!
