[QUOTE="rod, post: 763693, member: 5382"] Dress in layers. I tried many types of work boots over my carreer by in the end what worked for me in cold weather (-25 was common and I've worked in seen as much as -52) was a light weight pair of tennis shoes covered with insulated rubber overshoes. (dry and warm) As long as there wasn't a danger of rolling away our package cars were left running all day--------yes even when they rode with you. Actually when they rode with you on a brutally cold day they wouldn't even get out at most stops-- they would just huddle around the heater. By the time the long winter was over I would actually find it awkward to operate a DIAD without gloves on. You will find that working in cold weather is alot different than playing in it. The 1st thing you did when you hit the gas pump at night was to start your personal vehical so it would be toasty warm by the time you punched out. As a practical joke every once in awhile someone would switch their buddies temp control to air conditioning instead of heat. That was always good for a laugh. [/QUOTE]
