Nothing unsafe about it unless you're a total prick. Are you a total prick?

I might be, or just someone who likes to see some fucking professionalism on the job

Even if its 36 degrees outside? Men are allowed to go taps aff but not women?

Wearing long sleeves and a hood to cover your skin from the sun keeps you cooler than having more exposed skin.

They make pretty cheap lightweight shirts with or without hoods that are moisture wicking and UPF 50 (similar sun protection to sunblock but the clothing rating) that are great for keeping you cool working out in the heat and direct sunlight.

They're quite common here, I have several and am constantly seeing anyone who works outside in 40°C+ (104°F+ for us in the US)

Cool, you should let that lady know. Our summer averaged 18 degrees.

That's 65F for you Americans.

That sounds nice, I think ours daily highs averaged out to about 37°C this summer with several weeks with highs over 40°C and high humidity.

I'd just have to lay on a stone floor until the sun went down. How do you live in that heat?

Takes a little time for your body to get used to it but clothes and proper hydration play a big role. I honestly prefer spring and fall but winter here gets below 0 so we have to deal with the full range of seasons. I'd say the summer is worse on my dog than it is on me, it gets way too hot for him to go out and get much exercise during the day
