Brrrr! It's cold in there

This has been a particularly cold winter for Tartarus, made even more so by the fact that our boiler is being problematic. (Remember the day of no heat ?) Whatever caused the boiler to quit that day has been happening again. Like, every day this week. Like at least four times before noon today.

We've been working like this a lot.

Poor Spider Hero has been coming in early and staying late, trying to deal with the problem. He got called in one day at 2am and had to stay for a 12 hour shift, all with no thanks from the Hutt. Finally, today, they called in an "expert" to check things over. This is what we heard.

      Some part is making the heat sensor trigger off the glow of the pilot light. It will continue to happen until the boiler gets fixed.

      There is a leak in the oil line.

      Our boiler is lacking a necessary (like the guy has no idea how we passed our safety inspection) safety valve.

      The Hutt was more concerned with the cost of the valve (60 bucks) than the possibility of oil spraying all over the boiler room.

      The boiler guy doesn't care. He is installing the part anyway.

All together, this means that a) Tartarus will continue to be insanely cold b) the Hutt does not care about our safety c) we feel really, really bad for Spider Hero.

Please, no more late nights for Spider Hero
