In this specific case, the note writer has a point that is not really vegan-related.
The company did catch a lot of flack when videos of workers abusing the cows were posted on-line. The company claims the workers were fired, but the company still lost their contract with a Quebec-based cheese-maker, Saputo.

What does the note on the right say? It’s cut off.

And by writing on paper, you are supporting deforestation. Think of all the little birdies and buggies and squirrelies that lived in that tree too!
I guess we’re both going to hell. I’ll bring the chips, you bring the dip.

“Letting the milk spoil on the counter means the cows suffered in VAIN.” Wasting food really ticks me off. Also – there aren’t always a lot of options when it comes to brands of milk at the grocery store.

I find the note writers compassion for animals to be udderly mooving.

Bottom line: veganism and boycotting companies that support “animal cruelty” are choices. You don’t get to decide other people’s choices, and you have no right to force yours on others.

The second note implies that the writer of the first note took the milk out of the fridge and left it on the counter, which is a dick move.
However; it would have to sit out on the counter for a fair while before it spoiled. More than the couple of hours that a carton of milk is likely to sit out in a busy office without being noticed. Unless it’s lumpy and lemon-flavoured, just put it the fuck back in the fridge and move on with your life.

This is why I drink only Disneyland milk.
They treat their animals anthropomorphically.

Reminds me of a former co-worker of mine, a very militant vegan. Mind you some of my other co-workers were vegan too, but they didn’t try to force their dietary beliefs on others.
Anyway, the militant vegan went to HR and DEMANDED that all “carcasses” (anything containing animal products) be removed from all of our vending machines. And that there should be a separate fridge for vegans (at that time there were maybe 4 vegan employees) out of a little over 300 employees) so no cross-contamination occurred.
HR firmly let him know that he would not be allowed to force his dietary beliefs on his fellow employees and he literally had a tantrum, screaming that we were all murderers and stamping his feet.
Not surprisingly he got fired not long after that when he got caught in the act of, as he put it, “cleaning out the break room fridge”. He had dragged over the large garbage can in the break room to the fridge and was pulling out any food and drinks that contained animal products and was tossing them in the garbage can.
Yeah, dude had some issues

Note is not from a vegan, it’s specifying a particular brand of milk, not saying no one should drink any milk…

This reminds me of when I was a kid at school, reading a book in class, while I was waiting to take part in a bible olympiad (not optional). My teacher came up to ask what I was reading, and was horrified to find it was one of Stephen King’s books (I forget which one). She made a big scene of how disappointed she was in me, and got all emotional and called me out in front of the class. I didn’t have any idea who the author was, or why this book was presumably inappropriate for me to read (at all, or at that time specifically). It was just a random book I picked up.
Also, random, completely irrelevant, but one of my favourite TV shows as a kid was of a cow and a cat that ran a dairy together, and who were attacked every so often by Bac and Teria, two creatures from out of space. It was pretty amazing.

Ughhhh there is nothing on this planet worse than an activist that doesn’t get it.
You know what’s great? Getting mad an animal was abused to create a product, then letting it spoil. Yeah that’s so much better.

Using paper to leave notes damages the environment.
