It's bring your child to work day.

I just told a woman in our office that her daughter sounded "really turned on"

I meant "switched on". I corrected myself. Still so awkward though...

Wait...

Bring your child to **** work day? What's that all about? Before the sarcy reply, I understand what the words mean in the order you've written them. I understand what the event entails.

So what exactly are you asking then?

I just assumed that was a made up event by script writers of TV shows like The Simpsons to create some comedy moment

 

I bet the idiot that thought this was a good idea wears a suit to work ....  give me his email address and  I'll send him a strongly worded email suggesting he resign

Why are people bringing they'd children to work? What is it in aid of?

It's sort of like work experience I guess.

I don't really pay much attention to it, given that I don't have children.

 

But yeah, they get all sorts of presentations and stuff during the day, tours of the test track and plants and stuff. They don't just sit next to their dad at his desk all day.

 

Dunno, the parents who work here seem to think it's good. Can't really say I've put much thought into it.

I guess to give them some idea of what goes on in the workplace, preparation for life, and all that.

I see.

Sounds alright to be fair. Ignore my grumpiness, I'm having one of those days where just the thought of a child buzzing around me while I'm stressed out to buggery is enough to wind me up on its own!

I'm all for it.

Seeing as you don't own a child, did they let you bring your girlfriend?

(I will drop this eventually, once I've forced a meme out of it)
