Speaking of the deep freeze...
Anyone work at an outdoor job?
How are you faring under these very, very cold conditions?

I work 6/7 days a week....cold of not, it doesn't matter.

Luckily my work time is spent about 50/50 in/out of the cold as half the time i'm traveling. Sure it does kinda suck to be out in that weather sometimes....you try more often than not to not think about it and inturn it doesn't really affect your work.

You just gotta think positive and come to the realization that there are worse things in life and more work = more toys for your car.

well back on topic, sometimes companies have there air compressor out door in trailer, that sucks in this weather.. although it keeps pretty warm in the room.. the tools get freezing.. that sucks..

or if the unit is outdoors in a tralier and it wont start..its not generating heat.. then it gets freezing.. that sucks to.. lol...

Days like today, I'm thankful for a semi-warm office...it never really gets warm in there, but better than outside, to be sure...

Depends on who your asking.. Bruce Fee might tell you that you are. Not only that but he'll call you stupid too.

I hate to be that crossing guard for the school near my house. I'm gonna drop him off a hot chocolate on my way to work tomorrow. Knowing him, he'll prolly think I spat in it or something.

I work outside all year around. When i lived in Ontario we would quit when it got below -20 as the insulation cracks on the wire when you staple it. The coldest its got this winter in Victoria was -5 @ night back in december. Now i deal more with constant rain and dampness.

Don't want to sound like a dick but you have to figure these guys know this could happen when they take the job. The carwash I use has spray down guys, I grab them some timmies gift certs before I go through.

Everyone is always complaining it is so cold.....we barely get any snow and barely any cold. I walked to my car and walked 10 minutes to my class this morning and it wasnt that bad at all. People make a really big deal of it for nothing. We live don't even have it close to as bad as other parts. I for one, enjoy winter!
