Freezing office dwellers are taking to TikTok to complain about the low temperature settings and the extreme need to bundle up at their desks.

It's also impacting their jobs. A separate 2019 study found as room temperatures warmed up from the 60s to the 70s, female performance on verbal and math tests actually increased by 15%.

USC associate professor Tom Chang, who co-authored the research, told TODAY that “just adjusting the thermostat a degree or two” gives people that performance boost. Men, on the other hand, test worse in warmer temps. Chang, though, found that women were impacted a bit more by the cold.“I think the key takeaway is not one size fits all,” Chang told TODAY’s Jenna Bush Hager. “I got notes from older women who are in menopause and they said, ‘You know, I used to always be on Team ‘It’s Too Damn Cold.

Chang suggests office managers listen to their teams' opinions and pay attention to those who say it’s too cold or too hot. “And actually listen to them,” he said. “Making them more comfortable affects their productivity, which should matter to everyone.”
