Without hesitation, I tip my hat to these men and women who spend their afternoons in this sweltering heat to provide goods and services to the rest of us!

These are the people that medical professionals are always talking about when they warn of the health risks associated with this type of heat, and yet, every day, they show up, wipe the sweat from their brows and do what they do!
