Upper mgmt. or HR should have a talk with her. Same goes for anyone abusing the common fridge privileges....stinky food, forgotten lunches that have spoiled, excessive storage of breast milk.

If seeing a small bag of breast milk is offensive to her co-workers (not sure why) the nursing mother should get an insulated bag to store the milk in.

This is such a small office, there is no HR dept. And to top it off, this woman is an attorney! You think she would have some more sense...

It's not gross at all, but why doesn't she take the milk home with her every night?

After I'd been working at my current place for a year, I was looking in the fridge and noticing that the same stuff was in there for my entire employment there, so I started looking at expiration dates to ascertain whether some of that stuff was even edible. One tv dinner had expired 4 YEARS PREVIOUS. I was curious, so I opened it up to see what it looked like. Completely unrecognizable. So I just threw all the expired stuff away.

A couple hours later, one guy was asking around about where his butter was. I told him I tossed it because it was like 6 months past expiration and I didn't think anyone was using it. He asked which trash can. He went and retrieved his butter from the trash and made toast. I'm not even joking.

It was the stick kind, too. And not a new, fully wrapped stick. HE JUST RAN THE TIP UNDER SOME COLD WATER... That guy is weird though. One time I went to the restroom and could hear him in there singing on the toilet. All his clothes could be seen on the floor by his bare feet. Who takes all their clothes off to poop?

So hilarious! It reminds me of Seinfeld when George took his shirt off to use the bathroom and forgot to put it back on and comes out to a room full of people!

I tell you working in offices for almost 20 years, I could write a book with all the weirdos I've encountered. One girl in my last office used to sit in a bathroom stall and roll joints...you could smell the weed when you walked in. She had no cares in the world...got fired pretty quickly, oddly enough, not for that!

Wowwww...
Yea, I'm learning things about office people. One of my ex-coworkers had the messiest desk ever. I was afraid to go near it in case something had evolved into a predator underneath his desk. Well, we all had a cookout at this guy's house because he had the most outside space. As I went to bring beer inside to his refrigerator... omg... it was like one of those hoarder houses 3 quarters of the way through clean-up. I immediately got out of there and bought some ice chests and ice because there was no way I'd drink any beers that touched the inside of his refrigerator. (I also "wasn't hungry")

I'm pretty sure I would have contracted a previously-assumed extinct virus from some weird tropical climate that was being fostered in his home. Never again.

What if someone steals it and uses it for their coffee? People are thieves like that.

LMAO! You can tell a lot about people by looking in their fridge and by looking at their bathroom LOL

I am easily grossed out, that is why this breast milk thing is bothering me. I just refuse to put anything in there now. Not to mention the strange smell that has been emanating from it lately
