I used to work in a building where the heater didn’t work. This was obviously fine during the summer but during the winters it was excrutiatingly painful. My whole body was cold but the one thing I noticed was it was difficult for me to type and therefore work because my hands were ice cold. Well, there is now a solution. You can buy heated gloves powered by your computer’s USB port. The gloves cover most of your hand, but keep your fingers exposed so you can still be Speedy Gonzales on the keyboard. The gloves have two warming pads and warming levels built in to make sure your hands stay crispy. These are great because you can turn off the heater and save energy. Put these on, plug them in, and save the planet. You can buy them here.

Only ten bucks for heated gloves! That’s actually not a terrible idea, although you’ll have to suck up the ridicule from wearing weird looking gloves. Of course, if you’re in a building where the heat is off in the dead of winter, you’re probably wearing scarves and hats too.

I need stop taking jobs that don’t provide heat in the winter. I just made a mental note!
