This blows. I was just informed that the empty office I've been using for my dairy cow sessions will no longer be unoccupied as of some time in July. Although this office had a wall of windows, the windows are nicely frosted and I can sit at the corner of the desk with my back to the world. The curve in the desk was also very handy for pressing the pump thingers and my chest against for hands-free pumping. Awkward, yes, but at least I could play Tetris on my cell phone or eat or read something while I pumped. There was even a drawer with a key where I've been leaving the pump during the week so I'm not toting this 10-pound monster up and down and in and out every day.
Now I'm going to be relegated to a cubicle in the middle of the room, with an ovoid table and a sliding door that leaves a 6-inch gap. The only plug is in the corner opposite the door, so I'm essentially forced to face outward. I pumped in there a couple of times, and had to rig a curtain using a clean lab coat and some thumbtacks.
This is far from ideal, but it's the only option I'm being given. Well no it isn't. They said I could do it up here in the lab, but these are people who don't understand that CLIA and OSHA would throw a shit-fit if they found out. Besides which, the only spot up here with a door is an office with nothing but windows for walls. And no blinds. So, no.
This sucks. Hard. I've been able to relax and pump in relative comfort (when you're pumping booju, comfort is always relative) and now I'll be hunched over a table with my hands gripping the damned thingers and constantly glancing up at the gap in the door to make sure the coat isn't slipping.
Goddammit I'd almost rather go do it in my fucking car.
One more reason why I hate that I have to work.
