For the past few months my working environment, namely my primary office, has been an uncomfortable place to work from. This environmental problem has been stealth and very gradual. A part malfunction in the ventilation system pushing up the daily heat to 96 degrees daily but in a typical head in the sand approach I did nothing about it.
The environment impacted my mood, focus and ability to concentrate for more than 20 mins but my subconscious coping mechanism made me leave the office early, work from other areas in the building and generally be missing-in-action on a daily basis.
A simple call to building services resolved the issue but it dawned on me how often we ignore the root cause of a problem.
