A/C in Massachusetts? How things have changed.
X ground doesn't care if it's + 100F they don't have a nickel's worth of risk or liability resting on the guy who's out there dropping over from heat exhaustion . Now if the contractor who is incurring all the risk wanted to pull his guys in from the heat he first has to get X's permission to do so without being penalized. Oh,I forgot, he's an "independent contractor". The only true independence you have is found in the fact you can decide independently when you've had enough o friend being a contractor when it's in X's best interest and an employee when it's in X's best interest.

The heat is so bad that you want to be out in it longer?

Quick question. 100 degree's here, Stuck in a van with no a/c and manager says no a/c is not a safety issue. Is that true or do I have a leg to stand on if filing a complaint?
Our SM says for the mechanics not to pull vehicles to fix a/c because we need to keep costs down.

Well if your SM's air conditioning in his office quits rest assured he will pay somebody to fix it.

Have you ever worked at ups/fedex in a hot humid climate where the heat index is 110 or so?

Oh I know. I work in one of the worst tropical climates.
Dan would have issues if he had to deal with it 8 months out of year

So you knew the temperature and relative humidity in your truck?

Problem is drop the water weight and the BP drops dangerously low.
I'm trying to come up with a plan.

A few years back, my route had another round of replacing the turn lanes and medians. I sat through 4 stoplights at 3 straight intersections while facing the blazing hot sun at 15:30, on my way to a 16:00 pickup. I damn near passed out. The customer was sorta freaked out when I got to his dock and nearly collapsed on his dock plate..oblivious to the searing it was doing to my ass and legs.
Good on him to recognize what was going on, and he brought me a big container of ice and water to fix me up. He said I was white as a ghost.
