Resultbut imo they're going above & beyond.
I've returned to work this week, part-time.
Been off since May 5th.
I still have post surgery issues and restrictions, but work are bending over backwards to accommodate my return (and Dr visits every Mon, Weds &Fri), and have told me they're paying me in full since I've been absent instead of the SSP I was expecting.
I've been with them for two years and love my job. I knew they were a good company to work for, that's been apparent since the beginning, but imo they're going above & beyond.
I won't be forgetting May 9th in a hurry either.I'll be 7 in September!!!
TBH, I tend to celebrate the September one more than this one - I have no recollection of the day 56 years ago but can remember coming round on the 6th of September 2012 and knowing that I was mended and just needed to recover. Pretty much everyone I know who's had a similarly life changing experience feels the same. Gives me an excuse to have a Mojito for my lunch afters on my favourite beach!!!

Hideous.
I think the temperature hit 38°C at work today. In my dyno cell the temperature hit 40°C. But I have a chilled unit to keep air inlet temperatures down for the engine. That started off at around 13°C this morning when the cell temperature was 25°C but as the temperature rose the chilled air temp rose to 20°C. The chilled unit has two snorkel however, so the one I wasn't using on the engine I taped over a hole in the wall where cable's feed into my control room, so I had a nice cold blast of air blowing under my desk.We got to 37°C here by 4pm.

Don't get me wrong, my console room is capable of producing lovely cold air, it's just that it manages to do it in winter when you don't need it.I've got an air conditioned office.

Lucky for you photography is banned within the workplace without prior permission. Don't think someone wanting to see my knees is a good enough excuse.Usual reply to that is "photo required", but I'll pass on that

I can oblige now if you like. I am out of work and sitting in Tesco car park. Sun's out, knees are out.Think I might write your boss a letter of thanks for that rule
