I recently was referred ( I got the job) by a fellow industry friend. I'm slowly realizing that this "work" personality of my friend is interesting: I'm not on the their team, but when we have cross functional projects, they will ask me to do something just because they know my advertising background. How can I politely say..."no, that's not my job" without being awkward?

Already spoke with a partner who wanted something done this morning for him to review and then we discuss again. Sent it to him about 4 hours ago. Should take him half an hour to review max. At what point can I check in with him to see when we can catch up so I’m not waiting in the office all day?
