[QUOTE="TheFigurehead, post: 1253397, member: 49302"] I'm guessing, like most normal people, they don't spend 3-5 hours at a time in outdoor temperatures. Attire that is suitable for a quick trip to the store is not often suitable to stave off hypothermia and frostbite for long periods of time. Besides, we're experiencing cold we haven't seen in 20+ years. Just like UPS can't be expected to staff for peak year round, people can't be expected to purchase and keep winterwear made for arctic explorers for a cold snap that comes less than once a lifetime or two... it's not financially prudent. We could go on passing the blame off on employees who were told they'd be working in a (at least somewhat) heated environment and (at least somewhat) sheltered from the outside... or having a pi$$ing contest over who's the coldest... or UPS could turn on / fix the heat as per their contractual obligations... not to mention basic common decency.
