supportive coworkers

I work in a computer lab with five men. I was
sort of worried about pumping at work, but today,
my first day back, was totally awesome! I had
scouted around the office, but there's really
no place to pump. Bathroom is out, no offices
I can use. The lab is completely wide open,
except for some partitions up by the large
server.

Well, my coworkers helped me put up boards
against the window, put up boards by the side,
so that now I have a little private spot right
beside the server. It works fine, 'cause the
server is loud enough that you can't hear
the PIS. I hang my Lakers Repeat flag up
when I'm in there so no one comes in.

They all make fun of me (after all, they're
guys, but they're really cool about it. I
have to say, having supportive coworkers
makes all the difference. The physical
surroundings may not be soft, but knowing
that I don't have to stress and hurry makes
all the difference!

Good with nice down-to-earth coworkers!

I used to pump in a teeny-weeny office (as a consultant) with my three male
young coworkers. No way to hide ANYTHING. They didn't lift an eyebrow. One
asked once what on earth I was doing and before I could answer the other
coworker (slightly older - maybe 25) answered: "she's pumping for Niels" in
a "you block head"-kind of tone.

Felicitations! That's wonderful.
