    Imagine the conflict when the woman who needs to pump breast milk and the man who needs to spread his prayer mat and pray meet at the door.

    Although I guess it would be easily solved by him putting on a sleep mask. (Earplugs if he finds the squirt squirt of breast milk arousing or distracting.) Or if the entry door is on the East end of the room.

      Why would the woman want to pump in the room with a co-worker? Don’t know, feels like your trying to imply something about the man here. Or am I missing something?

        I’m not saying either would choose to be in there together. But having been a nursing mother, I know there’s no rescheduling the milk when it’s letting down. And I believe Muslim prayers need to be done on schedule. The man would no more choose to have a woman in the same room than she’d choose to have him in there. It’s the corporation I’m faulting, for deciding to make it multipurpose rather than providing separate places. Or, you know, adequate postnatal leave.

          I see, thanks for clarifying. Adequate postnatal leave is definitely what’s needed, and I mean like 2 years not 3 months. I had to use up all my PTO for each of my kids births because there was no paternity leave. My wife only got a couple months. Fun emailing about work when you’re in the NICU.
