>Why would you bring a bottle of breast milk to work with you, just to take it home again for the baby? Is the baby with you at work?
I think lactating women use breast pumps at regular intervals to extract milk. An 8hr workday, plus a commute, is pretty much not in the timeframe of a feeding schedule for someone staying at home and tending to an infant. It's also painful when breasts continue to produce milk and no one is consuming it. All part of nature's plan. Women who do use breast pumps can stockpile a little extra, for babysitters and a rainy day kind of thing, so it's always on hand.

Why a quality mother or anyone else with a brain about plastics/leeching carcinogens would be reusing a commercial water bottle with even more than 1 refill of water, is beyond me. Using sterilized containers are for storage, or even disposable bags for the soft bottles. I kind of think this sign was a hoax, hoping to fool someone who keeps drinking someone's coffee creaming milk (poured from a gallon at home maybe).

I dunno what the name of it was but some offices have these coffee/tea/hot chocolate machines that are pretty cool, generally there's an ice machine too, the proper kind that makes clear ice. I don't drink coffee but once in a while I'd get a tea or hot chocolate from them, then because it's too hot to drink I'd put some ice cubes in it.

That stuff is pretty useful in an office.

Not entirely unrelated pic, op.
Microwaved potatoes. You may put them in a heat-proof plastic bag (like these for making chicken in the oven) to make them softer or nuke them directly for more crunchy skin.

Take clean potatoes. Make holes with a knife in several places to avoid risk of explosion from steam buildup. Max setting, 5-8 minutes one side, flip, same time the other side. (one potato - 5 mins, four-five - 8. Anything in-between, time in between. Cut in half, salt, possibly a little butter and/or dill.

But the milk is for the babby. Therefore, the owner of the breast milk is the babby.

So, the babby's breast milk is correct, but awkward as it could also mean the babby's breast milk that it made.

Does anyone actually cook a meal at the office? Like using the oven or stove? The most I'll do is cook at home then reheat in the microwave at work. Then again my work doesn't even have a proper oven or stove. I suppose cooking ramen would be ok, but that can be done in the microwave as well.
