I work with three men and one other woman, who works part time.. Her and I are more 'practically' busy on a daily basis..In that, I answer all mail, up to 100 letters a day, emails, telephone, scan documents, type letters, etc etc the men's job is to obtain quotes and meet clients...
Whenever anything remotely domestic requires doing, it is me that has to do it...or the other lady, when she's in. Eg.. the men all like to drink 4 cups of tea/coffee a day.... (i drink 0) I am expected to make it, I am expected to hoover the floor, polish everyones computer screens... the men do it never...
If I dont do it..I get a talking to..About hirachy, my job.. and what's expected...although this is not written anywhere in my contract.. This morning, one of them actually said to me, whilst I was making his tea, 'well, its more a womens thing' im more a business man.. I was speechless.. I have a 1st class degree, he has near!!
Do lots of men actually think this???
