Dear Coffee Drinker
Dear Coffee Drinker:
Did you try the new creamer that was in the fridge yesterday? It was my special blend. I made it myself. You must have enjoyed it because it was all gone when I left at the end of the day so I don't have any to share with my daughter. She was so disappointed.
I just brewed a nice hot pot of coffee. Please help yourself. But don't use all the breastmilk this time; try to save a little for my daughter. She'll be so happy.
Thanks.
Shauna

Yesterday, I got to work and found out the floor is being ripped out in the room where my refrigerator is - the refrigerator where I keep my breastmilk. And since I didn't have a warning of said work, I was unprepared and didn't have a cooler. So I needed to store my milk in the refrigerator in the lounge - the refrigerator that everyone else uses. No big deal, right?
Well, at the end of the day, I went to the fridge to get my milk and it wasn't there. It. Wasn't. There. But, the empty bottle was in the sink next to the dirty coffee pot.
So yes, when I came in this morning, I left the note.
29 spoke up!:
ewwwww!!!!!!!
I would give A LOT to see the milk-drinker's face when they see your note!!
That is so funny! I too would like to see the look on their face. Does your office use video cameras so maybe we could all see it?
Please let us know how this turns out!!!!! I'd love to see the face of the breastmilk stealing offender!!!!!!
I can't decide whether that is REALLY funny... or REALLY disgusting... or upsetting. I know when I was pumping I would get so upset just to spill a few drops. Breast milk was treated like gold. But... they way you wrote it just had me laughing.
Do you think you'll find out who used the milk?
Who steals a woman's hard earned breast milk for their coffee?! I will stay tuned! Loved the note!! :)
On one hand, I remember how much I hated pumping, and how every ounce was like an ounce of gold, and so my first thought is "OH NO THE MILK, THE MILK IT IS GONE!" But that is followed by a huge rush of wide-eyed horror/glee imagining how the person who finds your note and knows what you're talking about will feel. At first I felt a little sorry for them, because clearly they didn't know. Then I realized they were STEALING SOMEONE ELSE'S FRIDGE STUFF. So, you know, karma. Funny karma.
You should go to a Sam's or Costco and purchase the biggest size of creamer they have and stick in the fridge! That is so funny it could be the next episode on Office!
It was probably a man... that is all I am going to say.
OMG! You know someone is freaking out! That is awesome! Thank you! After my day I needed a good laugh!
Holy crap...Imagine that poor sap.
That is ... my jaw is hanging open. Imagine how they are going to feel? Ha ha ha ha!!!
Funny story. The note is freaking awesome. I would never be able to do something like that. You should have hidden a camera. Hopefully someone will be able to share the moment of the note read to you.
OH THAT'S AWESOME!
OH MY HOLY CRAPPP!!!!! I sent this link to all my girlfriends. I was DYING when I read it. and I LOVE that you actually left the note. HAHAHAHA
You HAVE to lurk around there to see the reaction when the offender reads your note. That would be priceless! Oh, and snap a picture of said offender's reaction for us, wouldja??
the note you left is absolutely priceless.
I'm in awe of the lunacy.
I guess they got their just "desserts". How could they not know it was breast milk? i guess a man or a person that has never had kids could.
BTW I just realized our kids are the same exact ages.
P.s. I hope the baby doesn't go hungry due to some person's inconsideration.
You are my hero! I'd love to have seen the look on the offender's face. Must have been priceless.
OMG! Too funny! I hope they think twice about taking something that isn't theirs next time!
That reminds me of that Friends episode where Joey drinks breastmilk.
That is hilarious! I may have to plant a container and leave a similar note. I'm not breastfeeding, but it would be fun to freak people out!
Oh that's hysterical! I wonder if the coffee drinker turned green when they read the note.
WOW! I think I'd be so pissed at them taking the milk knowing how much of a pain in the ass it was to pump it. If it was in a baby's bottle, I'd say they knew it had to be breastmilk, or at least formula and they didn't care?
oh yuck!! hhahaha, too funny. Wonder what milk drinker thinks now.
Oh my gosh. I'm speechless after catching up on this whole ordeal. I always leave my breastmilk in our public refrigerator at work - no other options unless they want to buy me a private refrigerator. I would have left a note too. At the very least.
Oh my God! That is so funny and yet so unsettling at the same time! I second, nay, third the "liquid gold" comment. We had someone at work who would periodically steal people's lunches, but that's about it.
Someone has to be really desperate to steal a random container of white liquid sitting in the fridge.
(I love the new look, btw!)
OK, I have just about wet myself over this... if you get a reaction, please post it. I keep mine in a thermos in the work fridge in hopes that nobody will investigate... so far so good...
anyway, thanks for a great laugh
omgosh, that is too funny! servers the coffee drinker right! great entry for the this blog "blows up my skirt" contest!!
Too perfect a response! Like everyone else, I would have loved to have watched the refrigerator for the response.
I ran across this post today when doing a "caffeine breast milk" search and DIED laughing. I return to work after a nice long maternity leave in about a week, which is causing a bit of anxiety, and this totally made my day. :0) Thanks (about a year and a half late!)!
