I was the same. I would head out on the bicycle or to the Y.

A few years before I retired we had to start wearing body armor on the
job. I hated that stuff. It was unbearably hot in the summer and just
made winter awkward as hell. I once suggested that they should have to
wear it in the district office and head office, and shut off the furnace
and the AC, but pointed out that it is only bullet resistant and is not
effective against a knife in the back. I don't miss work.
