This padded cell could one day be yours

Too funny, you guys - it's Take Your Kid To Work Day, and I just had about 40 kids converging on my cubicle to rate its neatness!

Bunnylou and all these other kids are being given a tour by some of the cheerleaders in Admin. We could hear 'em coming from clear across the building. I stepped out to say hello - but it turns out they had been looking for me! Bunny knew we were near my section, and the cheery adults had been searching for parents who might be good-natured enough to let the kids peek into a real cubicle.

For a second I panicked, thinking I'd left Yahoo open - but no. Whew. Anyway, the kids gave my cubicle a 1, which meant very neat and tidy. (Remember I only keep one small box worth of detrius on my desktop.)

They've moved on now. I heard the head cheerleader joking with them. "You don't want to see MY office now, so we'll just move on ..." followed by a chorus of No's. They proceded to rate his office a dismally messy 8. Funny!

I wonder how many of these kids regard today's tour as an occupational warning?
