Being cold is simply a state of mind and a sign of a weak character and moral turpitude.

I currently work with a human furnace who insists that we keep our office at an acceptable temperature for him since he refuses to wear short sleeves.

In order to not sit here shivering all day I have to wear a heavy sweater, warm jacket and keep a blanket on my legs. My hands are freezing. I need to get fingerless gloves. But you know, he shouldn't have to wear short sleeves at work or bake. So I get to freeze even though I shouldn't have to cover up this much.

So as far as I'm concerned you should wear shorts and flip flops

You won't need the long underwear unless you're spending a significant amount of time outside. Get some nice merino wool socks and warm gloves. Wear a hat that covers your ears and have a scarf to cover your face to protect from any wind chill effects. You will probably want some boots if there's going to be snow. Getting to/from buildings can be messy and the salt can ruin a nice pair of shoes. Just carry your shoes in a separate bag and put them on when you're inside.

Wear layers on top so you can remove something if the building is too warm.

Here's what I got last night at REI:
  • Silk undies (tops and bottoms)
  • Gloves
  • A convertible head thing that can be just a cap, everything but the face, or a pseudo scarf/neck wrap
I won't wear the long underwear unless needed. I will make sure the hat and gloves are readily available when I land.

The best part is that the company is paying for it all!

I'm just hoping I can find my other boot: I have good hiking boots I want to wear, but one seems to be missing
