(224 posts)I worked at a natural foods store and people were allowed to bring their kids to work. Great for the most part. However, one woman had a five-year-old son who was basically fucked in the head. We had a pond out front with goldfish. People loved it, and we'd always give a few pellets of food out to kids who asked to feed the fish. One day, we caught this kid out front trying to grab the fish. We asked him why and he said he wanted to kill them.
The general manager would bring her dog to work. He was a super friendly little Westie. Loved basically absolutely everyone and he'd chill upstairs in the office and break room all day. One day, I was playing with him and this kid came upstairs, the dog ran over to me, leapt in my lap and started shaking. The kid went back downstairs, and the dog went back to normal. He came back again and the dog did the same thing. I went and told the GM to make sure that kid was never alone with the dog, because he was doing something to the dog. This dog ADORED kids and went into total fear mode when he appeared.
