Do you work in one of those places where you can wear headphones and no one bothers you as long as you keep drawing/designing?

Yeah, those places are notorious for hating children and thin mints.

Found out that Keebler (or Nabisco, or something) makes a pretty solid thin mint replacement year round.  Also have a caramel delite version.  :lick:

The WORST is when people lean on their vendors for this crap.  You know, cruise into the audit room and ask if anyone wants to support their kids random cause.  WTF are the auditors suppose to say?  Doesn't matter what you are doing, when client's ask for that crap it's a huge pain the ass.

Even worse than this, are employers who won't let you get reimbursed for being strong armed by your clients into supporting this crap.

We had an amazing holiday party for the kids. Santa, magicians, face painting, balloon animals, cookies, etc. Basically let everyone w/ kids have the afternoon off.

Wow.  Who did they lean on to pay for all that?  Also, seems kinda weird unless you work for an org who's biz is directly related to children in some way.

If I didn't come to your daughter's 10 and under softball poker fundraiser, why would you invite me to your son's 6 and under baseball poker fundraiser? Aren't 6 year olds still playing t-ball? Who the eff has a traveling t-ball team? Should I just throw the flyer away in front of her so she gets the point...

ALERT:  If anyone has a daughter in GSs in SW Omaha that wants to sell the sd's some girls scout cookies please PM for my address.  We REALLY underestimated our cookie intake needs and are approaching a crisis.  t-y.

Sounds like this guy is going to be disappointed when his kid sucks at sports.
