It's actually quite nerve-wracking being part of management at a holiday venue when the temperature is touching the 30s. I'm constantly worried that someone is going to pass out with heatstroke, or burn themselves on something hot in the playground, or get horrendous sunburn and sue us for not protecting them. I'm not sure what we can do to avoid all that, but people do seem reluctant to take responsibility for themselves these days, and when at least one third of our current residents are children, it's hard not to feel anxious about it all. So every outside table has a parasol, there are warning signs up on anything that might become hot to the touch, and I'm walking around like an overprotective parent making sure that nothing is melting.
