    Disagree, as long as the temps are the same. Sun exposure/UV will sap all the energy out of you and outside work is usually going to be more physically strenuous than whatever you’re doing inside

      Some buildings trap heat and can actually be hotter than outside, with no airflow and often the humidity of dozens of sweating humans.

      Yes, outdoor labor is strenuous and working in the sun is draining. But at least the air moves (usually)

      Yeah but the temps never are the same are they? The sun heats the building and unless you’ve got a fan the entire shift, you have no airflow. Agreed on the UV part tho.

      Edit: Lol about the more physical/strenuous part tho.

        If the blinds are closed and there’s half decent insulation, and maybe a fan for some airflow, inside can be much nicer.

        Offices generally don’t have this though, unfortunately

          Warehouses and newer factories are often sheet metal buildings with no insulation and maybe a vent fan by the peak. You often get industrial blowers on the floor but it’s still pushing triple digit air at you.

      I don’t experience that personally. I find the constant AC blowing on me fucks me up. Being out in the hot sun feels great. Maybe I’m a reptile…
