The Big Freeze

Remember back in June when all of the staffers down at Ticket King St. Paul were complaining about how HOT it was in the Ticket King St. Paul office? And we were sooo excited when the A/C was installed? Well. We have the exact opposite problem during the cold, winter months. The St. Paul office is really unique and super cool, everyone comments on the architecture and "real St. Paul flair" that you see when you walk into our little spot. Part of that flair comes from the fact that this is an original St. Paul building - meaning the heating situation is still kind of stuck in the dark ages. Well, just back to the days of radiator heat. Hah.

So, being an energy conservative company, we turned the heat off in the St. Paul office on Friday, because no one would be working here over the weekend. And boy oh boy, was that a bad idea. Monday morning rolls around with a predicted high of 32 degrees. A little icy, eh? And it took four hours just for the temperature to hit 63 degrees inside the office! Wow, we definitely won't be making that mistake again!
