Loading ...I didn’t know it was still a mystery for some, but a US court just ruled that managers asking receptionists to get coffee for them is not a discriminatory act.
I know it may be demeaning to have to grab coffee for your boss, but if you’ve signed on as a receptionist, aren’t you sort of expecting various fetch and prepare type tasks? If you don’t like it, quit and find a different job. Seems simple enough to me, though I guess these days it’s more like, quit (or get fired for refusing in this case), sue, then find a new place to work. Good to know some courts still wear their common sense hats for these cases.
File that under go fetch me a Mountain Dew!
