Baby Blues by Rick Kirkman and Jerry Scott for May 17, 2022

Their “reputations” precedes the little darlings!!

/SHMIRK/

Making that poor woman feel guilty enough to give Zoe the jelly donut. Then she can go home and crow to Hammie that she got a jelly donut and he didn’t.

My cubicle days are over, thank heavens.

My dad says I can’t go to work with him because he’s a secret agent.

Tryin’ to figure out Mr. Carlson in that first panel?? Is that his mouth, or does he just have a weird head?

What’s wrong with that? Someone has to take the last donut. Of course it doesn’t make sense that the woman is eating the donut right there.

so we would they do if he still working from home?

Zoe is not shy, is she?

I’d love to bring my girls; but I work in a secure federal facility. Pity, they could help the language translations.

Mr. Carlson sure was funny on WKRP.

“So you want this doughnut after it’s been halfway in my mouth?” They wore masks in this strip, so you-know-what has happened in that world.

I was in the Navy and they had a family day on the ship. What a ZOO!! Some started climbing the ladder on the stack. Looking under the tarp with the Nuclear Logo on it was interesting too!! Another fun part was the wives with spiked heels trying to go up/down the stairs that had holes in them. The final fun was having to wait 2 hours to eat because the families got first dibs.

. Some work places are not appropriate to take your child to. I grew up around my fathers business. i got to help out in a slaughterhouse from age 7 until i was in my early 20’s and finishing university.

Zoe is going to one of THOSE, even as an adult, that will not recognize or honour boundaries, any where, ever, for any reason. Until HER world is invaded.

who you’ll foolin. you go to work to get AWAY from the kids.

I sure hope that he doesn’t work at Aperture Science.

This day is not going to end well for Darryl, and unfortunately, Zoe will not be punished for the many transgressions she will commit.

My boss was always OK with me taking my daughters to work if I had to (if daycare/school was closed). One time I had to. Before going into the office, I told the girls, “My boss just got a TV in the office. You are not to touch it. You are not to ask to watch it. You are not to LOOK at it! You’ve brought things to do; you’ll be fine.” The first words out of my boss’ mouth when we walked in was, “Hi, girls! Wanna watch TV?”

Would the dog catcher’s kids set the dogs free?

Is Wren supposed to be the troublemaker or does Dayrral not give away his kids’ genders at work?

I was a teacher in my kid’s school. I took my kids to work with me every day.

My oldest niece was exactly like that as a child. And still that way now in college. It’s is a behavior parents need to address somehow when their children are young. Maybe seek out the advice of a professional? It is not a trait that leads to having many friends when you become an adult.

Brat! Nice to see Darrel is honest about Zoë.

Still being a tattle tale huh Zoe?

I got to go to work with my Parents every day as they owned the store ….. :)

We know that Zoe is a tattletale.

My Mom was a stay at home Mom so I was at her job everyday but I didn’t go to Dad’s job until I was 19, that is when I started working for him at his commercial cleaning business. ;)

Haha! XD

I went to work with my dad but because he worked a 11-7 shift, I didn’t last too long there.

I remember enjoying take-your-kid-to-work days when I was Zoe’s age – my mom’s office would usually have a big breakfast buffet that they would bring in for us!

For crying out loud, Zoe! SOMEBODY has to take the last jelly donut. (It wouldn’t be me, though. I prefer plain cake donuts)
