S/O My company has a nice Lacation Room

Well, we call it the "mother's" room.  You reserve your time on-line and get the key from reception.  It has a nice comfy little loveseat, another nice chair, a mini fridge and a hospital grade pump in there. 

I know many small firms don't have things like this, but I would think most larger companies do by now.  Maybe I am naive?

  • You are blessed. When I was pumping and working I had to lock myself either in the small, nasty restroom, the customer safe (and pray no one needed to get in their safe box while I was in there), but most times I resorted to pumping in my car out in the parking lot and pray that the drunk guy I worked with wouldn't take my breast milk and use it for his coffee.

  • We have "nice" lactation rooms.  There are about 5 rooms (each with room for between 3 and 10ish people at a time) between the five buildings (I work for a very large company). 

    Each of them has bathroom-like stalls with a chair, counter to set your pump and reading material on, paper towels and cleaning solution.  The rooms also have a dedicated breastmilk fridge, microwave and lockers if you choose to leave your pump there.

    I'm thankful to live in a state where it is law to provide a dedicated space to lactating mothers.

  • I work for the federal government and there is no such thing.

    I'm lucky to have my own office, but for employees not as lucky as I am such as our clerks, there pretty much is no option for you.
