1. Is "my kid thinks my work sucks" an acceptable excuse? -nt

[progmom]

6. my kid is too young to be subjected to this

and for some reason, despite my explaining it to him repeatedly, despite the fact that i work part time from home and he sees me doing shit on spreadsheets....he thinks i make music for a living. :)

2. Don't I know it!

The building is full of the little varmints! x( Arggh!!

[progmom]

3. grownup: "and on this side is where all the music buyers sit"

kid: "oooooooh - i wanna go in there"

:argh:

12. Ha ha!!

The pitter patter of little feet down the hallways... is really freaking annoying at the office!

4. I'm not sure of the whole thing.

Most places the kids end up with the day off from school, and play computer games in the office. That to me is worthless. My daughter has seen my office when I'm at work, and there's not much to it. (How exciting is working on an excel spreadsheet or writing meeting minutes?)

On the other hand, one firm I worked for (a large financial firm) had classes for the kids, teaching them about the stock market and how it works. At least they had something interesting for the kids.

5. I wonder if I can make one of the visiting kids attend this "webcast"

instead of me...

7. Put them to work.

Have them fetch your quad-espresso, and make copies, and do the landscaping. :P

8. I can't shoot you

9. Every day is kids at work day for me

Because most of my co-workers act like children.
