Renegade:
Have your laugh. But I have worked in more non-conditioned places than I have the opposite in my lifetime. Put in many years in hot humid commercial kitchens and warehouses during my school years - and for a while afterwards while interviewing for my first "real" job. Did a lot of outside work in all seasons too.

Oh, I know. It's just that the way you'd phrased that was just painting a target for a good ol 'el cheapo~! :D

Off topic comment on grammar"have <past participle>" indicates a more distant past than the simple past. It also creates ambiguity in many cases. Interestingly enough, this grammatical structure is favoured in British English (Australian as well, etc.) where the simple past is favoured in American English. The simple past is a more direct statement.
