Haven't done one of these in awhile, so while I am being annoyed here, I thought I would spread the joy!

Why is it that some people think that if you turn the thermostat down that the air conditioning will work better? This drives me crazy at work. They ask me to kick it down and I say "it is already blowing - it won't blow colder just because the degree is set colder".

Yesterday, we had it set on 68 and it never got below 75 because the A/C doesn't work well here. I cannot fix that. I cannot make it cooler by setting it lower. It just doesn't work that way! We have been having this conversation for about 8 years since we moved into this building.

I don't think it is that complicated. You set a temperature on the thermostat and the a/c blows until it reaches that temp. It can't make the unit blow colder. Is it actually possible that they don't comprehend this?

OK, I feel better. How about other people's pet peeves???
