Smite – If our unmarked cars had a/c. Most of them don’t. Broken.

Alan B – Yep. it wasn’t spectacular before, but now the air rarely works.

Mike47 – The FOP heard about it and bought us fans for the office. All it did was recirculate hot air. Our building has no corridors for air to pass through. One side of the building has windows, and that’s it. Nice, huh?

Raptor – It might be less hot if the heater was on.

Bob – There was a day last winter where we were typing with gloves on. It was that bad. Seriously.

Admiral – Just the perks of the job, I guess.

This of course also means that the heating system at the precinct will keep temps in the station house in the 30s in January and February.

I feel for you, Wyatt. My old high school was like that. The AC went on full blast from November through March. Then the heat turned on until June.

Your union contract should have a clause that addresses extreme climatic conditions in the workplace, that necessitate release of the workers until a fix is made. Usually there is a temperature above which workers go home or management takes immediate action to fix the problem. On the other hand, you could suck it up, stop whining and deal with it ;>).

This all comes along with the new super-duper office re-organisation you were telling us about?
