Well, how can you guess what to expect from them! They learn fast, much faster than moms notice. So my little bully was able to surprise me recently.
He was able to get into my workplace. Imagine, standing on tiptoe and repeating everything that he managed to spy. This youngster got to the work reports. There were so many of them that I decided to spend an exciting weekend with them. Well, those who did not work at home, let them be outraged… I noticed my kid, I wanted to see what he was doing. Maybe something attracted him to the computer? Or a bright picture?
But the son stood as if he had been working at the computer all his life. In one hand is a mouse, the other is on the keyboard – and just look at it! He highlighted a paragraph of the report!
Highlighted and deleted! It looks like he’s about to add a lot of work to me! My son,» I called affectionately, «but a bear and a cat are waiting for you! Go to them! Do you miss the Bear? — I lowered the baby to the floor. No, Mom is tired. And I will work,» my son said. Mom wants to work herself! «Well, no,» the son was indignant, «I will work, but my mother does not! «And I already understood what kind of things my son had done. And then the phone rang. Director’s number. Trouble came from where they did not expect.
I picked up the phone and heard the voice of his deputy.
«Good afternoon, Nikolai Petrovich! Something urgent? «» Urgent, yes. You send reports unprepared. We are not used to working like this, but now there is a blockage, the whole department is being sewn up. I see you brought your work home…» «Well, you know, I didn’t expect…» «And you know,» Nikolai Petrovich suddenly said, indecently cutting me off in the middle of a sentence, «this is a great solution. If we remove these unnecessary streams of information and leave only the essence, the processes will accelerate. I understand your idea, you just work with the design. You still have experience…»
I listened dumbfounded, said something about intermediate results. But the boss assured me: the new form of reports will wait until Monday. The idea to simplify them was very useful, it’s a pity that we lost so much time. Have a rest, and on Monday we will discuss a new form of reports,» the joyful boss finished. And I looked at my son with apprehension: already at the age of three, he made my life easier. But I still don’t let him near the computer. You never know…
