A source who has since departed Blizzard talked about how the room designated for breastfeeding didnt have locks. Men would walk into the breastfeeding room. There was no way to lock the door. They would just stare and I would have to scream at them to leave. IGN understands that breastfeeding rooms have since been updated, with locks added to doors.

Jeez the culture there sounds crazy.

I think you'd expect to see it in a room specifically designated for it.

I think there is a misunderstanding here. Not surprising since it is CE.

It should be called a lactation room. When a women is breastfeeding but at work she still has to take the milk out of her breasts. It hurts. So you hook yourself up to a breast pump. You store the milk in bottles and that is fed to your baby by whoever is watching it while you are at work. So you pump for the babys food for the next day. A lactation room has a fridge so you can store the milk.

It takes a while to pump the milk and damn if I wouldnt like for a man to walk in while I was doing it.

But the thing is my old company had a room that was only for lactation and it had a lock and that was 12 years ago. And it had been like that for years. A company run by old white guys had more sense than these idiots.

I am honestly surprised peopel don't know those rooms exist. Sure not every job does but office jobs tend to have them if they can afford them.

Dear moron. Its a lactation room. You arent taking your kids to work. You have to remove the milk in your breasts that is under pressure building up and fucking hurts. Your kid gets it the next day by their caregiver.

I guess we know why things were so bad at Blizzard, guys have no clue how a womans body works.

Its paid but doesnt count as a break. They legally have to allow them to lactate whenever they need to.

That's why I appreciate a lot of Vegas casinos and their airport. They have dedicated lactation areas with cameras right OUTSIDE the rooms to monitor for this kind of behavior.

Casino ones were for employees only, but as far as I'm concerned that makes sense. People smoke a lot in the floors of the Casinos, no reason a new mother should be in them if they're breastfeeding, let alone breastfeeding in those areas. Then again... I dont think boobs should be as sexualized as they are.

Cant do that anymore if you have more than 50 employees.

Its the overarching federal law, but if your state has a stronger law they have to follow that.

I know how a woman's body works. It's just that I've never heard of a place of business having such a thing and OP called it a breastfeeding room so logically you would assume it's a place you go to breastfeed.

Anyway that doesn't make it any better. Why are these women at work if they have newborn babies who are young enough to still be on the tit?

Lactation room is the technical term. Breastfeeding room is more slang; but some mothers do have to bring their children to work, and its not really a big deal. Say your nanny comes down with the flu, what is the mother supposed to do? Think a little harder next time.

Even if was "breastfeeding" you would literally have to go out of your way to see them. That are just " dumbfounded " because of a situation that willy put themselves in.

You are not helping your case with that last comment.

Do realize how long you breastfeed for? Its not just the 6 weeks disability you get. After that you can take FMLA but that is unpaid.

Breast milk only for 6 months. Then still breast milk along with solids for another year.

They arent supposed to get regular milk during that time. It doesnt get them the nutrients they need. If you arent breastfeeding then you have to buy formula which is extremely expensive.

My younger kid breastfeed until 2 when I finally cut her off.

I'm well aware of that. I'm suggesting people should wait until they can survive on one income before having a kid.

Oh, so say [breastfeeding woman] has a very high stress job. Just to make it harder for you to make a BS claim they're head of a new project; they've just come back from their 6 weeks maternity leave.

Nanny comes down with the flu, lasts 10 days. They should risk losing their job and fucking her, and the child (plus other family over) instead of taking the child to work? Shut the fuck up weekoldhotdog.

Thanks. Here we have it folks; he doesnt think mothers should be allowed to have a career. Didnt even opt for the "dad could do it" route I intentionally left open. just dug his heels in deep on the "Mothers should stay at home with their children" route.

In other words: Please take this time to tag him as a misogynist appropriately.
