Today is Take Our Daughters To Work Day. I have no daughters. Or sons. Or kids. But if I did, there would be so much wisdom I could bestow on my young offspring. If I had a little girl, her name would be Lola, and she would wear glasses like mine. I'd bring her with me to work and we'd wear the same outfit. And these are some of the things that I could teach my child:

I could show her all the great web sites that I spend most of the day persusing.

I could show Lola how to position a mirror (or reflective surface) on the top of her monitor so she could keep tabs on people outside her door so she wouldn't get busted looking at non-work related web sites.

I could teach her some "work speak" so when co-workers want to know how their projects are coming along, she will be able to spew some corporate speak to let them know things are moving along fine.

I could show Lola the nice looking man that goes out to smoke everyday at about 2:30. We could watch him from my window together.

I could show Lola how to order from Taco Bell and to teach her that Krispy Kreme donuts do not mix well with the Bell's Steak Quesadilla.

That is only the beginning of my wisdom. There are so many things to teach Lola. They all would never fit into the day. I'd need at least a day and a half.
