Cryogenics, Not the Only Thing Keeping Us Cool This Summer
|
Just as the sun began to peak on a hot afternoon during a recent summer heat wave, Meyer Tool employees were called to the east end of the building. To their surprise, there was an old-fashioned ice cream truck waiting to take their orders. Employees gathered round with smiles and laughter as they enjoyed Strawberry Shortcakes, SpongeBob Popsicles and a variety of other cold treats.
Despite working with liquid nitrogen that can as reach temperatures as low as -210 degrees Celsius, Ice Cream Day is a much more enjoyable way to beat the summer heat. Kenny Urban, a veteran machinist with over 9 years at Meyer Tool, looks forward to Ice Cream Day every summer. “I love Ice Cream Day. During these hot summers it’s the perfect way to cool off, and being a surprise makes it even better.” |
