If You’re Freezing In Your Office Then These 29 Memes Are For You
Your hands are shaking so much that your words per minute typing rate increases to never before seen speeds. Your teeth are chattering and sound like you’re playing the Castanets. Your breath comes out in huge clouds of condensation that immediately turn into snow. We’ve all been there: you’re working at the office and you realize that you’re slowly freezing into a popsicle, much like Jack Torrance at the end of The Shining (can’t spoil something that’s been out for ages).
With Autumn already in swing, some office workers are already feeling the ill effects of changing temperatures. Even if you’re the healthiest person and walk around in shorts all year long, you can’t deny that Summer is over and, in the memorable words of the Starks, Winter is coming. To keep you smiling while you freeze, here are some of the best cold office memes that we collected from the deep, dark, and frigid places of the internet. Be sure to read on for Bored Panda’s full interviews with professor Eddy Ng from Bucknell University about how to resolve issues linked to climate control at the office and how temperature affects our productivity, as well as with Dr. Agne Kajeckaite from the Berlin Social Science Center about how low and high temperatures in work environment differently affect men and women.
Scroll down if your scroll wheel isn’t ice-bound yet, upvote the best memes, and be sure to share this list with your friends who are also always cold. And to remind you that it’s not all about ice and Titanic jokes on planet Earth, check out Bored Panda’s post about the reactions Europeans had to the record-breaking heatwave this Summer.

In Turkey, many years ago, met this lady, wearing like khaki-cape, or something like that . She was a lovely and cool (pun intended;)) lady. Btw she wore a hijab (scarf-like/ all open face)- she had a topnotch job, and skin felt like chilled silky normal skin (hands) Turkish woman knows best!! I am sure 🇹🇷

I just keep a long, thick winter cardigan in my locker. People look at me like I'm crazy when they see me around the office with it, but what else am I supposed to do when my colleagues are convinced that 15 C is an acceptable temperature to set the AC on?

I have done this because setting actual office furniture on fire was frowned upon...

I hate that. Sitting on something that is warm from the previous person's behind is so unpleasant.

This happens in every office I've ever worked. Men and menopausal woman are hot and women and young people with no body fat are cold. Putting heaters under your desk usually confuses the HVAC and even though you're comfy, you've tricked the whole system into colder. I talked to an HVAC tech years ago. He made a whole group of complaining nurses happy by installing thermostats that weren't connected to anything but power (but they didn't know that).

I'm always hot the moment I arrive at the office, but after a few minutes I'm freezing. I have both a mini-desk fan and a mini-desk heater for each purpose. I use the heater only in winter times, though. For the rest, I cover myself with one of those warm cotton sheets. That makes me fall asleep, though.

I used to work with people who would come into the office too hot from walking and fling open all the windows. Argh!!! The annoyance! Why couldn't they acclimatise themselves? One woman did this while still wearing her coat. How I didn't fling her out the window I will never know. Then they'd moan the room was too cold... Well, I wonder how that happened! That fun was winter. Summer was just as bad because I sat between two air conditioning vents and was in a freezing cold vortex. My work area was two degrees colder than the rest of the flipping room! I thank you on behalf of your colleagues for using your fan or heater.
