CSI

There he lied - brutally hit, bleeding and dead. The poor Pizza Hut guy was really helpless. All the pizzas he was to deliver were scattered all over the place. The bad guys have already fled the scene. No one tried to help. There were all kids standing around the pizza guy holding their parents' hands. The kids never had seen anything like this. This was something new and strange to comprehend for them. But the parents had let their kids go near the pizza guy and stare him into his eyes. Some kids even touched the dead body. No one uttered a word against them. Everyone standing by started to like the way kids were trying to investigate the crime. One lady standing by, advised the kids to investigate it further by questioning the people who might have witnessed the whole incident. The kids started to question - Ethan was interested in the people who hit the pizza guy, Ryan was interested in the weapon used and the youngest and the cutest Amy asked "Are all those Pepperoni pizzas"? The question brought a grin on everyone's face including me while I was working in my cube few feet away. I thought the kids got it - all these, I mean, the dead pizza guy and letting the kids to investigate is a set up. It was 'bring the kids to work' day and as usual, the Justice department made it slightly different. Anyway, the kids seemed to be serious and they were very much into it. The set up taught them to analyze the situation and go from there. At the end of the day, I felt that it was a good learning for them how to tackle the situations.
