To my co-worker: I don't have it. You know I don't have it. All my kids have 4 legs. Please stop parading your grand babies around the office and expect me to ooohhh and aaahhh. And REALLY don't try to get me to hold the little tyke.

No offense intended to parents (especially wart whose "stinky" is adorable!)

I agree 100%. When people bring their babies to work I'm just like "meh, its a baby"

I could also do without the weekly emails describing what little poopie-pie did over the weekend, with a trazillion photos attached. I adore my nieces and nephews and my friends' babies/kids....but my co-workers are my co-workers. The next time my dog feels the urge to roll around in another dogs poo or on a squirrel carcass, I'll make sure I email poopie-pie's mom with details AND photos!

(and definitely no offense to posters here who do have adorable kids!)

This could be worse than my "donate for every little event possible" emails.

Nobody forwards stuff like this around my office. It would be considered inappropriate.

I think some people are trying really hard to pretend that the office is some kind of proxy family, which, of course, it isn't.

This is a good rant. People need to realize that nobody really cares. I certainly don't.
