At my work there was a special room that you could use either to relax in or for new mothers to express milk. The sign said in Dutch:
"kolf ruimte / rust ruimte"
('kolven' meaning 'to express milk', 'ruimte' means 'room' and 'rust' means 'rest', i.e. 'rust ruimte' is a room to rest/relax in)

But it also had a handy-dandy English translation below:
"lactation room / restroom"

Engineers joke!😄🛠️
A priest, a doctor, and an engineer were waiting one morning for a particularly slow group of golfers.

The engineer fumed, 'What's with those blokes? We must have been waiting for fifteen minutes!'

The doctor chimed in, 'I don't know, but I've never seen such inept golf!'

The priest said, 'Here comes the greens keeper. Let's have a word with him.'
He said, 'Hello, George! what's wrong with that group ahead of us? They're rather slow, aren't they?'

The greens keeper replied, 'Oh, yes. That's a group of blind fire fighters. They lost their sight saving our clubhouse from a fire last year, so we always let them play for free anytime.'

The group fell silent for a moment.

The priest said, 'That's so sad. I think I will say a special prayer for them tonight.'

The doctor said, 'Good idea. I'm going to contact my ophthalmologist colleague and see if there's anything he can do for them.'

The engineer said, 'Why can't they play at night?'

A local man is calmly leaning against a fence in the countryside, when a city tourist approaches him and asks:

-What a big flock of sheeps you have here! Do they eat a lot of grass?

The local farmer answers:

-Which ones, the white or the black ones?

-The white ones.

-The white sheeps eat, more or less, 10 kilograms of grass every day.

-And the black ones?

-The black ones too! About 10 Kilograms. That 's it.

-And tell me, how much wool do they produce in a year?

-Which of them, the white or the black ones?

-The white ones, for example.

-Those produce 5 kilograms of wool per year.

-And the black ones?

-The black ones produce the same amount.

-How interesting! And tell me, at what price your sheep meat sells for?

-For which ones, the white or the black ones?

-Black ones!

-Meat sells for about 10 euros per gross kilogram.

-And the white ones?

-The white ones too, the same price.

The tourist is a little perplexed, and finally exclaims:

-Every time I ask you something, you tell me to distinguish between white and black sheeps, but it seems that your answer is always the same, no matter the color. How is that?

-Simple, the white ones are mine.

-And the black ones?

-The black ones... too! All sheeps are mine.

A friend claimed to have won an award for procrastination. When challenged to prove it he said he couldn't because he'd never got round to collecting it.
