Hottest conditions you've ever worked in?

I remember once when it was like this they interviewed some steelworkers who were working in temperatures up to 95F. They were soldiering on till morning break when they went outside for a cold drink and then they'd get their heads down till lunchtime, outside again etc. They had the big foundry doors open as well. You get the picture.</p>



That week on our tailgate it was 105F. We were carrying girders on our backs and the air was 100% humid so the sweat didn't go anywhere. It was thick with dust and sometimes the fumes from firing the rip, often you couldn't see 4 yards. Needless to say local TV wasn't interested in us, we were still scum from the days of the strike.</p>



Although we did harder jobs I don't think we ever worked in hotter conditions. (I got dragged into a kiln and baked once at Hepworth pipes but that was an accident.)</p>
