She is known as the ‘tough task master’ at her workplace. Her charismatic persona, assertive looks, 'chin-up’ attitude always coerced people to look up to her as a show-stopper. Her average looks never had been a hindrance in her confident presentation skills. Every time she stood up to discuss her presentation, many heads turned around to notice her magnetic personality.
It
was those chilly days of January. She was perfectly dressed up for office. A smart
pair of beige trousers teamed up with aqua-green sleeveless top and a warm pea-coat.
She had taken extra care to dress up appropriately for this big meeting.
But, as soon as she entered the conference room she sensed something wrong. Why is she feeling so hot here? The temperature outside is almost touching zero degree Celsius. Inside the office it should have been a couple of degrees more, then why is she feeling unusually warm. She got tensed and assumed getting a high blood pressure attack. But, she never had any BP problems earlier, might be she need to slow down on job stress – she thought in her mind.

Almost
all the meeting invitees had gathered in that room and suddenly the facilities
manager appeared there uninvited. He proudly announced the installation of
central heating system in their office effective that day. Everyone applauded
this change with lot of comfort. But, she was not able to enjoy that warm comfort
at all. She started sweating inside her heavy wool pea-coat. She wanted to take
it off but alas! She cannot.
