The Office Kid
Not everyone is a fan of family-friendly workplaces. About 20% of employees surveyed by staffing firm Adedco, grumbled that they often pick up the slack for co-workers juggling children and career.
Add some wit to that resentment and you get TheOfficeKid.com, which offers childless workers who want to duck out early a visible excuse of their own.
Launched in August by Melissa Maher, the site offers a $19.95 kit containing a framed snapshot of a child (you choose the gender and ethnicity) plus adorable artwork drawn by Maher with her left hand.
Maher says her own experience as a kidless colleague spurred her to create the kit as a gag gift.
