The government only states those numbers so that poor people feel like they aren’t missing out when they can’t run the AC after their power gets cut off.

That’s just perfect for all indoor activities.

I just sleep outside so I can turn the A/C off altogether

My thermostat has never been above 80.

What is the point of even having a frickin AC if you set it at 78/82

I've been to many, many government buildings, and none of those things are set to 78 degrees.

My thermostat is at 69 year round.

We usually just leave ours at 71 all the time. I might turn it up to 75 when we go out of town.

76 during day and 73 at night

Just rolled into the shop and it was 76 degrees.
Unacceptable. AC now on and set at 70.

82 is what I set our houses at when we're going to be away for weeks at a time.
Posted on 5/25/20 at 1:28 pm to pioneerbasketball
mine stays at 80.
anything lower and it’s too damn cold
during the day most of the time I just turn it off and open up the windows and doors

75 during day; 71-72 at night — sometimes 70.
Wife would kill me if set any higher.
