When the burners of the stove are providing the heat...and then heating the water, I call that an unsafe and unsanitary environment. I recognize that the building "heats up" during the day. People themselves give off heat but I challenge any one of us to report for work and begin our day in 44 degree temperatures. These women are very pleasant; they obviously enjoy serving the public and do their very best to maintain a pleasant attitude. I commend them all for their work ethic and attitude. And I still think the owners should fix the furnace.

So, what did you do before modern technology and the internet and forums. If you wanted to get the owners attention to the matter, why not ask for him and talk it out with him instead of "bashing them" on a public forum. Maybe they had a call in to get the furnace fixed and a part was on backorder....you don't know. Gather your facts first!
