The A/C cannot keep up the load, due to the exteme heat. So they decided to just not cool one part of the building, to be able to keep cooling the other part ..

It is now interesting who was in which part ;)
- mytailorisrich 3mo agoIf that's the case then the building's system was very badly designed...
- alistairSH 3mo agoThat seems true - it's not a historic building - it was built in the mid- to late-1960s.
- gwbas1c 3mo agoIt was designed for historical, pre-climate-change weather. (Or at least when those were in the know about climate change thought we'd solve it.)
- mytailorisrich 3mo agoThere's probably a "Belgian joke" to be made if their AC is only designed to work when it isn't hot...
- gwbas1c 3mo agoUhh, AC that's designed for a hottest day of 85F or 90F will struggle at 100+F.

- forgotaccount3 3mo agoClearly those in floors 1->7 were less important and thus allowed to take the day off and/or work remotely, right?
- alistairSH 3mo agoIt was 4pm on Friday, so yes, they were probably heading home already.
