Our office has two modes: super busy or super slow.
When it’s super slow, it gives me a lot of time to think. Mostly I think about how I can adjust the thermostat in the office. The thermostat box is locked up in a thick plastic box. It’s always hot in this office. I’ve asked my boss, a few times, to change the thermostat settings. However, he refuses. He said he has better things to do than change the thermostat back and forth all day long. I don’t understand why they don’t just unlock the thermostat so we can change it ourselves. But I know that’s not going to happen. That’s why I spend a lot of time trying to think of ways to adjust the thermostat. I looked into changing the thermostat settings on the HVAC unit, by bypassing the thermostat, but this doesn’t seem possible. I also looked into hacking into the smart thermostat. Other people have been able to do it with other thermostats but I’m not really very tech-savvy. Another option, I’ve considered, is having a second thermostat installed. I could get a thermostat install that I can control and it would be hooked up to the HVAC system. However, I don’t see how I can do this without the bosses noticing. Besides, I imagine this would cost me a bit of money and I don’t have a lot of money. So those are the options I’ve pretty much ruled out. I’m still trying to figure out how I can adjust the thermostat though. It will come to me, I’m sure.
