Take Your Child to Work Day

It was “Take Your Child to Work Day,” and I got permission to participate. We walked into the office, and I showed my son my cubical, my desk and then gave him a tour around the building, where he met all of my co-workers.

We returned to my cubical, letting him sit in my seat and play with the computer as I was finishing some paperwork. Finally, I told him I needed my chair, and he got up so that we could switch places.

As we did so, he asked, “Dad, where are the clowns you say you work with?”
