What Are We Thinking?

I had a thought for the suggestion box at work. I have had a few good ones since I started some four months ago, but I think this one beats all of them.
My idea is this.
I think that each employee should be given, in addition to their name tag, at least a three inch number to pin on their slleve. This number would identify their age.

The reaosn this would be a good idea is because it would present us "mature" employees from wasting our time flirting with the girls that are still in highschool.

I am a nice person, and I try to be nice to all the people who I work with, but I question at what point my nicemess is becoming flirtatious, and that concermns me with some of the girls that I suspect are still in highschool.

My ego is not that badly in need of stimulus that having a fifteen year old flirt with me is gonna make me cool, so I feel that if their ages were nicely labeled on their left arm, it would save me a lot of reasoning with myself that I am only being nice when I am clearly flirting and looking for that feeling ytou get when someone is flirting with you.
You see, if I knew their age, I would be discusted, and that would repel me from even remotely acknowledging them. Perhaps that is extreame, but the idea and cost of the alternative, almost makes it seem right.

And why stop at just my workplace. Perhaps I should send this idea to the liberal government. They seem quite eager to pass any bill that will piss the majority of canadians off.
