Almost all my coworkers feel the need to comment that I’m still wearing shorts past-Halloween. Yeah, even if it’s cold outside it gets stuffy and hot in this damn warehouse! I can tolerate the cold between my car and the front door better than I can tolerate getting sweaty in here!
I’ve always ran a little hot and have tended to be more comfortable in cooler weather, but I will often get random strangers coming up to me and being like “OH MY GOD SIR ARE YOU NOT FREEZING RIGHT NOW! YOU ARE WEARING BUT A T-SHIRT AND GYM SHORTS AND IT’S BELLOW 60!” No, I’m fine, I just don’t mind the cold much.
Parents sue the school district and try to get you fired for not protecting their child. Heaven forbid Johnny come home with a stuffy nose! It could be bronchitis! Or covid! Or cancer!
I knew a teacher who was threatened with that because she looked at a child who had lied to her while talking about a short story they were about to read where a character lies. Parents said the teacher was purposefully and publically shaming their kid – but no one knew about the lie and the story was on the course plan far in advance, but everyone had to get lawyers and fight it.
That’s whack.
My impression (from anecdotes) is that schools are infecting kids with covid all the time and the administrators will laugh at you or look at you funny if you ask them to provide adequate ventilation or air filtration
