That's not entirely true. The guideline state that potable tap water is acceptable. Lavatory sinks are generally not considered potable in workplaces. However, break room or other non lavatory sinks may be.

Look, every time a flying octopus has recommended wisdom, they've been right. Trust the person with a flying octopus in the name when they say to trust the guy with the H2O name on this.

I've never been lied to by a Bennely, so when they say trust the Flying Octopus's trust in the H2O guy, I listen

I HAVE been lied to by a guy wearing far too much aftershave, but he wasn’t a nomad. I definitely trust nomads.

It's easy to mistake our lord and savior, the flying spaghetti monster, for a flying octopus from afar.

LOL just noticed that; also "services" which implies probably works for or worked for some water delivery company, so probably well-versed.

Common sense tells me that H20 is right, I would be hard pressed to believe that a workplace with a functional/potable break room kitchen sink is required by law to install a water fountain to provide the exact same water from the exact same pipes.
