Adriana's query reveals one of the more grotesque examples of why maternity
leave is way overdue in the US.
Even if the woman has a place where she is comfortable expressing milk and
has the opportunity to take a break to do so, where in the hot field is she
going to store her milk until she can take it home? Oh, of course - the
employer who equips her with a port-a-potty will provide a courier to rush it
straight to the door of her luxury mansion so it can be served before it even
cools down from body temperature. That is, if the nanny doesn't come pick it
up in the HumVee at lunchtime, naturally - this would be hard if millk pick-up
time conflicts with baby's massage hour, or swimming lessons, or the like.
Sheesh.
