Worse when it's kids. I used to dread the weekend at the office, when one of my co-workers obviously thought "Well daddy has a problem here, stuck looking after little Jimmy or Jane, so why not bring them into the office?" Then ****s off down the warehouse for an hour, leaving me either doing my best to ignore them or trying (and failing) to engage with them. Jesus!

I like to teach them new swear words, with the older kids getting lessons in advanced swear structure.

Dangerous though: you never know when they're gonna point to you when asked "Where did you hear that???" Some of them would just draw at daddy's desk or pretend to use his computer, so that was fine. It was when you were specifically introduced to the kid and had to then interact with a tiny human being in a manner which is outside your general frame of reference that got to me. "How about that pop artist, then, huh? You like sports?" etc.

That's when you say "and what other words did I teach you, Timmy?" and Timmy says "kids don't belong at work."

"I'm sorry, I got kind of mad when I sent him for beer and he came back two hours later with a bag of Pixie Stix."
