rhuAnyone else remember when "Take your daughter to work day" was all about making sure girls realized that they could grow up to do the same jobs that boys would?
And then somewhere along the way someone decided that this was "sexist" and it became "Take your children to work day", which largely defeated the point?
Well, I think the remaining point has been squished as well. Last week, my office marked "take your children to work day" by having a late-afternoon minigolf and pizza party for anyone who wanted to bring their children by after school so that they could, well, play minigolf and eat pizza. Because, of course, that's what we do in the office.
