Blatant Commercialism
So,
As you know I work with families... or more importantly Mom's and Dad's.
Because of this, odd things show up throughout the building. Like this
week, the girlscouts have broken loose.

Now - we know there is more than one parent selling cookies for their
precious... And thus the competition begins. Parents battling to sell
carloads of cookies. Multiple forms from multiple parents for cookies in
the coffee room - one always on top of the other. - Covering the
competition, the easiest way to win. Each time I get coffee the forms have
been shuffled - one form conveniently shifted to the bottom.
But today... it has been escalated to plastering the little girl's photo on
the order form, so we know just how cute she is. I can't wait to see where
this battle is going. A battle of the cute girlscouts demanding a free
trip to Washington.
In the meantime, I can't decide whether to be sick or order a box of
Samoas.
* Look for MR. Sweeney's article "I'm going to have my baby first, just to
win the office pool." later this week.
**The opinions expressed in Weekly Commentary are those of Mr. Sweeney and his alone. Any attempt at finding sanity or logic in his rantings are feeble, at best.
