Why would you label me crabby? I am not crabby. In fact, I am quite a nice person. I just don't think that an office is a place to parade your new baby once a week. Maybe bring the kid in once for everyone to see and then be done with it. I realize that new parents are all happy and excited (I was once a new parent) but I find it hard to believe that they have all suddenly lost the sense to know that their joy and excitement is generally not something that people not blood-related to the newborn share. Is this show and tell. Should we all feel free to parade around the office with whatever brings us joy and waste other's time? That is not to say that I don't know a bunch of people who would find this perfectly acceptable if the "whatever" of the receptionist turned out to be three-way sex with her boyfriend and best girl friend.
You know, it seems to me that we all have this mental list of what everyone is supposed to think is precious, sweet or cute and then want put the label "beast" on those who disagree. It is not like I said that the baby should be killed or anything, just that babies shouldn't be paraded around the office all the time.
