29. My employer is very understanding
My point is that it doesn't take as long as she is complaining that it does.

If we are given more time, then the smokers should be given more time, and so should everyone else. I know what my job requirements are and I took the job knowing the requirements.

I doubt this woman stops every two hours in her day to day life to pump or to nurse. I am sure one day or two days of changing her schedule by a few minutes will not cause her harm! Do what the rest of us do and eat and drink while you pump. It is also when I get some novel reading done.

To the people jumping on the men in this thread, I am a woman, and find that she is looking for a reason for special treatment. The article states that other nursing mother's have not found the time to be an issue.
