'I went to work for a small company and they had some big wigs coming. All of the women in the office had to clean before they showed up, but the men got to continue doing their jobs.'
"My second year out of college I was working as a data analyst for a large NY bank. On the whole I loved my job, my manager, and my team. However, the Managing Director of our org insisted that another analyst and I plan events for the entire org, as a way to team-build. So in our very limited free time, we had to call bowling alleys, escape rooms, etc. to schedule these events, keep track of attendees, and stay within our budget.
"Finally I said to him, 'Asking me and [other female analyst’s name] again, huh. Why not [white guy analyst A] and [white guy analyst B]?' and his response was to laugh and say, 'I would but I know they wouldn’t do as good a job as two, plus don’t ladies love to plan events?' Agh.""I'm a paralegal, and more than once, clients have come in to discuss their pending divorce with their attorney, and bring small children with them.
