Today, I brought my little sons into work with me. I introduced them to my boss. She said to my shy kids, "You boys don't know me, do you? I'm Janice." The older one lit up and said, "Oh, I know you, mommy complains about you all the time." FML

That's awkward

Today, I took my wife and our 6 year-old son to a company party. Sometimes I take my son to work with me, so he knows my coworkers. One of them walked over and introduces herself to my wife, and my son says, "Yeah, they go to into the bathroom together all the time during break!"’ Thanks, son. FML

Storage wars

Today, I brought my daughter to work with me. When we walked in, a client was blowing up at my boss, all because as my boss was walking past his storage unit, he glanced in and was about to compliment how neat it was. After my boss left, I had to deal with the aftermath, which left my daughter terrified of this man. FML

Mommy's boy

Today, after I've spent years cultivating my reputation at work as a hardass who's good to his team, as long as they're competent and own up to mistakes, my mother came as a customer and suddenly I'm a kid all over again. She even tried to pat my head and ask if I'm eating enough. Now my team all keep smirking at me. FML

Today, my mom started her new job; she's now my new coworker. She's already told the other girl I'd said she talks too much, and has berated me for not calling her "mom" while at work. FML

Today, I got to take my 10-year-old son to the junior high school at which I teach. When my students questioned him about what I was like at home, he told the entire class: "Well, she farts all the time." FML

Today, I met my coworker's kids during a cookout. I joked to her eldest son that he was awfully short for a seventeen-year-old. He responded, "Well, you're awfully ugly for the town slut." Everyone laughed, including my boss. FML

The great replacement

Today, my ex-husband came to pick up our two kids for his weekend with them. Seeing his new girlfriend was in the car, and desperate for conversation, I asked her name. My kids unhesitatingly blurted out, "Mom". FML

Today, my 17-year-old employee accidentally called me "Dad". We all got a good laugh from it and went on with our days. Later, after getting her some coins for her cash drawer, she playfully said, "Thanks, Daddy." The customer she was serving? My wife. FML

Today, I accidentally called my boss 'mom'. Now she is jokingly telling everyone that I'm the long-lost daughter she gave up for adoption, because she knew I'd be a failure. FML

It's called daycare. That's where you drop kids off for the day. Not at work.

U must have a really tough job if u can take ur kids there. I hate people that bring kids to work!!! It's a place of business not a "oh, look I have kids" show stage. Hope u and all the others that bring their kids to work get FIRED!!!!!!!!

Some companies sponser a "bring your kids to work" day. It's called trying to spend more time with them because your work disallows you. Shy kids aren't likely to be little obnoxious brats, anyway.

If I were your boss, I'd actually be amused. Of course someone is going to complain about their boss. Unless you said things like "**** THAT STUPID HOE BITCH" instead of "Man, she really worked me hard today! Mommy's really tired." then it's all perfectly fine.

YDI for having loudmouth kids. Teach them some common sense.

You obviously don't have kids. At a certain age, they'll say anything that comes to mind. That's when you start teaching them when it's appropriate and not appropriate to say things. My guess is, the OP's son was right around that age, and the boss probably laughed about it.
