rlandrl,
BK deleted my message that I left you yesterday 
.
Okay, let me reply once again and hope that it shows this time. First of all, don't give up yet. Check if the toilet is clean for pumping milk first. I know some moms use the toilet for handicapped as it's usually bigger and more private. You can also check HR or your boss if there would be a spare room for you to use. It don't have to be fansy, just a chair and an electricity output will be fine. It's for the sake of your baby and try to ask does not hurt. If your boss refuses or there's no space, then you can look for another option.
If you need to express milk and toss it, you should still clear up the breasts in case that you want to maintain production. Since your baby's 10 months old already and you want to wean her, then you can gradually delay your pumping bit by bit. I saw a message from a BK mom - she delayed her pumping schedule bit by bit and finally, she does not feel engorged or leak during office hours. She still can nurse in the morning and after work while the baby drink formula during daytime.
Honestly speaking, hand express is not difficult, just needs to know the techniques and it can be quite messy at the beginning. Bring a towel and you may want to take off the top sweater before expressing milk so that it won't get wet. Or, you can buy a manual pump and see if it can speed up the process.
The motive for you changing your job is good. You know, our babies are 10 months old already. They need more solid food rather than our breast milk soon. Pumping won't be a problem in long run but more time to be with our little ones is the first priority. I have given up a job offer lately as the current one gives me more flexibility on taking day off and I can work less hours in a day.
花旗太太生活在花旗國，留意時差，你問我未必即時答到。

Of course, who carried her by the body for so many months and fed her for 10 months? Memememe.....
