OK everyone, admit it: when the weather outside is
delightful, the last place you want to be is at WORK..
This product will best suite smaller businesses & home offices,
as a large office building might be damn near impossible to
install this sucker on - not to mention, expensive.*
Basic
construction would include an aviary-style frame that
encompasses the entire building. Various panels can
automagically be lowered from the framework (usually by the
boss) to simulate crappy weather to the casual observer
inside. The basic principle at play here is keeping the sunlight
to a minimum and diffusing available light into a dull neutral
gray, much like a rainy day.
Workers inside eventually forget that the Weather Filter has
been activated and will stop looking longingly out the
windows, thereby increasing their productivity.
Models include one that can be affixed to the sides of a
high-rise office building and be activated on a single floor if
need be.
*The increase in productivity, depending on the company's
average annual revenue will theoretically pay for the Weather
Filter in an average of three years. I'm not sure how I
figured that out though.

that would be kinda cool.. Maybe combine it with the
link for Adjustable Windows - that way it could get all dark
& ominous inside for the desired effect... |

I have to admit, I think this company was thinking along with you when they built this buliding. You see, it has no stinking windows! Same effect; same results. A bunch of grumpy people too busy complaining about not being able to see the weather to get any work done. |

But it does make a cracken tornado shelter! |

They'd never do any work, but they'd never want to leave. |
|
|
Then you get to charge them rent!! |
