Men tend to prefer 70 degrees and women tend to prefer 75. 72.5 sounds like a reasonable compromise.
- nathas 11y agoSounds like no one is happy then.

- Zikes 11y agoWhat's the alternative? The article reads like the majority of employees are men, making 70 degrees optimal for maximum employee happiness, but "just leave things as they are" doesn't seem to be the solution the article is driving at, either.
- groby_b 11y agoThat's kind of how compromise works - everybody gives a little. Nobody gets exactly what they want, nobody is completely left out.

- jinushaun 11y agoOr people who like it warmer wear more clothes. I'm a guy and I always bring a sweater or two in the summer because of AC. It's a lot easier for me to warm up by putting on more clothes than for someone warm to cool off by wearing less—which is not a reasonable request at work.
