Getting Coffee, Getting Stereotypes
A female receptionist/data entry clerk was asked to fetch her male bosses coffee and refused - and was subsequently fired.
“Getting coffee, much like sexualizing women by making them wear short skirts or heels, is undeniably a way that men in male dominated workspaces have demeaned women, putting them in their place as servants or housewives (or sex objects) as opposed to professionals.”
From Jezebel.com: One one hand, you’ve got to wonder if a male receptionist would be asked to fetch coffee. On the other hand, don’t most jobs include things not listed in the job description?
I think people should get their own damn coffee.
