So I think I'll take a break, put the boat in the water and let my finances re-build a little! We'll hit again this fall!
Wimp

I don't blame you one bit. It is even hotter inside a non-A/C building than it is outside where you at least get the cooling effect of the wind and can find some shade to cool off. Industrial buildings are usually fully exposed to the sun all day long and heat soak horribly staying hot well into the evening after the sun goes down. Not fun at all.

Have fun with the boat this summer.

Maybe you can talk the boss into getting some A/C for the shop
