My zipper just broke

13 years ago, when I bought a one way ticket to London and walked the world awhile, I bought an olive green fleece jacket from Woolrich. That garment has been with me all over the world, and is the single most comforting thing ever.

The zipper broke yesterday and I am distraught. I can replace it...which seems silly on such an old (but remarkably viable...go polar fleece with its plastic self) piece of clothing. But I can't imagine tossing the jacket. It would be like drowning a kitten...just not doable.

so much ~ma to your step-aunt Raq.

and a good relaxing evening to all that needs one. Spent the day at soon-to-be-former-employer having my brains sifted for information. now, chilling and trying to relax. It was stressful!

Last time I replaced a zipper I think it was $15. Save the jacket!

I'm compelled to shout, "Save the world!"

I'll do it.

Do any of you (lawyers) know if there are regulations of minimum and maximum temperature ranges for office spaces? The owner doesn't currently care about us and won't actually fix the problem for our office even though it's 80+ in our general space and 95.5 in my room. We don't have control of the thermostat.

OSHA doesn't regulate temperature: [link]

Fabulous. Thanks anyway for the link.

I wish it were a better answer -- my building is also freaky with the HVAC, although not anywhere near as bad as yours from the sound of things, so I can sympathize. Any idea if there's a state or local body that might regulate things more tightly than OSHA?
