[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Our federal agency does not offer plastic cups, glasses, or anything of the sort.

In fact, before covid we had a water club in our office (meaning the club members paid individually) so that we didn’t have to drink unfiltered DC tap water.

I promise you I don’t want to lug my own filtered water and thermos from home 5 days/week. [/quote]

Does any federal office have free water? I have never worked in a federal office in 25 years that had free water, coffee, or any sort of snack. (Not complaining. My tax dollars don’t need to go to this, but tap water would be lovely) My favorite was when several members of Congress came to a meeting in our office and asked for coffee. We snickered. First, there wasn’t free coffee and secondly, whose coffee mug did they want to drink out of??[/quote]
I’m not a Fed but as a tax payer I DO want my tac dollars to provide free and safe drinking water to all Feds/Contractors that have to work in buildings that do not have municipal water that is safe to drink. Providing free clean drinking water to all employees should be a given. And with the billions being wasted on this war, we can afford to provide you with water.[/quote]

I heard it’s lead pipes but I don’t really know. We have these super cute antique water fountains with signs saying not to drink. And in the bathroom it also says not potable.

I bet lots of buildings in DC are like this but only the Feds are testing their water in the building. [/quote]
