Dog Days, Continued

The heat warnings continue so it's no surprise a patron came in complaining about the heat and asking for water. Which got the new guy wondering what to do in case someone was suffering from heatstroke.

Being the information specialists that we are, we went to the Internet (after all, isn't everything on the Internet?) and looked it up. The website we found said one should remove the victim's clothing and apply ice packs to the armpits & groin.

Can't think of too many patrons with whom I want to become that familiar.
