I got fired for not getting coffee.

I was working on a short film that had no budget, that I had the chance to produce. I got a call from the director telling me that apart from other petty reasons the he was letting me go and wouldn’t credit me because while I was sitting around doing nothing (when in fact I was actually writing contracts and call sheets) he had to get coffee orders from the crew. The crew was made up of all his mates and I was one of only three women on set (the other women were also his friends). He said it should have been my responsilblty to get coffee for everyone.





But he did tell me not to let this get me down or discourage me because I am a “strong, independant woman.”





I wanted to kick him and his false feminist word vomit in the balls.
