So today is Take Your Child to Work Day...

[iamwiz82]

...How many little bastards are running around your workplace right now? It's like we hired a whole gang of midgets to run around screeching and touching everything possible.

 

Glad I'm not in an office setting.

My god that would piss me off.

It's not so bad if you have worked in a circus previously.

 

[tec699]

lol, go work in a elementary setting! It's like that on a daily basis!

Little brats!

Think this company set a limit to 20, first come first serve.

A brief overview of the agenda:
· We will begin the day at 8:30am with a light breakfast with parents and their kids.
· Lunchtime will be with the child's parent so that they can spend time together.
· There will be a fun end-of-day snack for parent and child.
· Throughout the day there will be sessions with different parts of the business.

Same here. One kid has just begun to crawl. :roll: It's an excuse to not have to pay their babysitter for one day.

We (My childless coworkers and I) have come to the realization that this is the best form of birth control, ever.

In the past we've had kids and dogs brought in on this day. So far I see neither.

 

[radioouman]

we don't allow kids at this company. They draw the line at flirting. No relationships, cannot have spouses working here, no kids either.

The local school system has a program that a 9-11 year old follows you around all day at work to learn about your job(shadow). I was asked if a couple of kids could be my "shadow" for the day, I was working as a Controls Engineer at the time. We had so much fun goofing off and talking, that I finally agreed with my wife to have kids.

When is 'take your pet to work day'

 

[richardycc]

my workplace does it every other yr, and last yr I asked one of the kids "who is your daddy?" and he said "so and so is my daddy" my co-workers and I were laughing so hard.. haha

We just had two groups with about 15 kids each come through. Fortunately they're not letting them stay, just a brief tour.
