Well you don't have to go the gym tonight

Isn't it strange how we are expected to work in any temperature, but they send office workers home if it gets uncomfortable...

 

[craigday]

Who's gym?

 

[rmaynard]

It's unbearable mate, the travelling time on the job was 2 hours each way so even leaving at the crack of dawn meant we were there through the hottest part of the day

On holiday in Arizona I got talking to one of their sparks and asked him how they cope. He told me that every now and again they soak their t shirts in cold water and the evaporation of it helps to keep them cool. I tried it and it works a treat, on some sites I'll soak a rag and put it in my hard hat.
Maybe it's just psychological but........

The Lady electricians probably won't agree with that tip.
