Oh, That Explains It!

Apparently, it's take-your-kids-to-work day today.

I just thought the new staffers were a little smaller than usual as some sort of twisted cost-savings effort.

whaddya mean, twisted? minimum wage laws don't apply to minors do they? I mean, that's what made the coal mines so economical to run in early industrial revolution era England - all those ten and twelve year olds trotting to and fro in the pits, working for even less than their parental units did. That's not twisted, it's tried-and-true!

I just met a couple of kids of one of my colleagues. Now it makes sense why they are here.

I have no idea if there are any kids here today. I'd be hard pressed to see any difference in behavior or intellect between some of my colleagues and their children.
