Yesterday, I was the agent on duty at Prudential Sawicki in Amherst. Our top agent came in and she just leaned against the receptionist's counter with her head in her hands. Another agent quickly got her a chair and a drink of water. I got her car keys and got her something to eat from her back seat. She sat in that chair, right in the office doorway, for quite a while.
I haven't yet set the stage. What I haven't yet explained, is that until this morning, western Massachusetts, and all of the North East for that matter, has been undergoing almost 100 degree heat. Yes, a heat wage just came and went from the Quabbin region.
That's why our best agent entered the office yesterday in the condition she did. She hadn't drunk enough. And in the heat we had, one couldn't drink enough water. It didn't seem like I could drink too much. The office was cold as the air conditioning was cranked up so high. But when coming and going from roasting hot car to the great outdoors or an un-air conditioned property, the heat is overwhelming! Lesson learned: Drink lots of water.
