How come some women at office jobs ask(commanding) for coffee!,or "men's help" to co-workers?even to clients!

Question

Are they...entitled,or is a psych way to feel "higher" herself without becoming aware of how lowlife is so?
Is it learned from preceeding male roles?

I had to set an appointments tent and the "clerk girls" in the near by booths kept all this sort of protocols going on between my hired (male)ones and other ones....
One of them felt she had to 'brief' me in anti terror techniques with Public....and I grew up in terrorist besieged Europe and did service in Irak!!!

Answer 1

This is really incoherent. What is your first language?

Answer 2

I am an marketing assistant in an office; I also am in training for a promotion where I will deliver technical seminars...so I doubt anyone would be so daring as to ask me to get them coffee; but I report directly to a VP...and this is a global company with sites in over 70 countries...so he has rank but would never, ever do that. That being said.....I have never witnessed anyone in any office I have worked in ask someone else to get them a cup of coffee, ever...male or female. Maybe this is something that only happens in the movies...or else I am smart enough not to work in a place like that for long.

Answer 3

My first employment experiences were in department stores where I was department manager, then I worked for MetLife for a few years; I then went back to school and worked in doctors offices for 20 years as a medical assistant. My last job was in my local school department working for the School Committee. In all my years of employment, not once have I been asked for, nor have I asked any one for, a cup of coffee.
This is an old stereotype that has, thankfully, fallen by the wayside.

Answer 4

I would never ask someone to make me a coofe in my own office, just as I would never tolerate being asked to get someone else a coffee.

I am a hands on manager who is also a team player. In my office, everyone does their share of the work (tedious tasks included) and if someone needs help, it is readily available.

I have worked in businesses where the men at the top have acted in the way you are talking about, but they are becoming fewer and fewer. I have not personally experienced a woman acting this way, but then, I have never worked under a woman.

Answer 5

I'm not quite sure exactly what you are asking.

But rank has privileges. In the past a secretary was expected to bring coffee to her boss and to his guests. As the roles are somewhat changing....women in supervisory roles are expecting the coffee delivered to them. And obviously you resent this situation.

Many women in the past resented this. I know I did. Serving coffee and cleaning nasty ash trays was not in my job description.

Ask someone what your job description entails and go from there.

Answer 6

Sometimes women ask for help not for being useful, it's just for play different roles with men.. it's kind of a game, right?

P.s. I just came of starbucks and buy and serve my own coffee..

Answer 7

I've worked office jobs for 15 years and I've never seen this.

Answer 8

huh, I wrk in an office and I don't demand coffee and favors, although they will grab that cup of joe for me, if they know what good for um... I keed

Answer 9

Feminists learn everything from men.

Men are the explorers and leaders then the women follow.

Look at online gaming. Men were the first, then women eventually came to take over.

Everything we do, they later develop a liking for.

What? My brain hurts from trying to figure out what you are trying to say.
