How do you folks deal with the heat?

This seems like an appropriate topic and we can get back to it every summer. So how hot is it at your place and how do you deal with it? For me, these summer days are especially difficult. As mentioned in another thread, I work at a touristic place. June till August is the main touristic season, as we all know, plus it's the hottest months of the year here - it's a deadly combination for me. Imagine being in a small room and serving 20 angry tourists at once and doing this for 8 hours every day. Crazy and it goes on like this every year. I'm happy it's August already and I can't recall what was the last time I really enjoyed summer. It makes me appreciate the Fall season even more year by year.

I don't mind the heat. I'm usually outside half the day collecting water samples, so I drink water to stay hydrated.

Hmmm thats a great question, but I can't speak for everyone when I say this because I'm very use to the heat but to beat the heat?

Stay in the Shade: shading will protect you from the heat.

Cold Compress: Use a cold, wet cloth and apply on your wrists, neck, or forehead to cool down quickly from the heat.
