ASR Staff Engagement December 11 Survey

This week’s ASR Engagement Survey asks about your plans for the rest of the month. Thank you for continuing to share your stories and experiences.

According to the last survey, most folks prefer their thermostat set between 66 and 69 degrees (62.5%), followed by those who prefer 70-73 degrees (20%). Most expect that the Twin Cities will get more snow than average in December this year (45%), and as of writing this, we’ve already almost hit the average snowfall for the month. So this is looking to be true!

Finally, we asked if you own a heated blanket. Most say they do not own a heated blanket (72.5%), while 15% own one but rarely use it. Thanks all for your continued participation! It is very much appreciated.
