    I'm sitting directly beneath the A/C vents in the office, which they have blowing at full strength, even though it like 15C outside. I'd like to put a heater under my desk but I'm afraid the weather systems would clash and it would snow on my desk :-D

    It's like 15C? What is it really, 14C, 16C? ;P

      The AC will try to compensate the heater so you probably will get a blow of cold air; the only winner in these wars is the utility company. Better find where the AC thermostat is, set it to 22C and then smash it with a hammer.

      Smashing the thermostat resets it to its default value of 0. ;P

              Depends, most of the big ACs have a central computer in the AC/compressor room and the thermostats are just a “remote controls”. Your TV won’t change the channel when you broke the remote. Before the university I had 4 years technical school for AC and heating systems back in Sofia. ;P

                    Do what my coworkers do when stuck with an unwanted vent cube. Sacrifice a large box and some paperclips and construct a baffle to direct the air into your neighbors cube. :rolleyes:

                      No, but you might create one of these[^], and that would just be cool. :-D We used to get them multiple times every summer and I'd ride my bike through them sometimes for the fun of it.
