I was on the course with my mentor this week for a business related event. All the men continually thought we were the cart girls and asked us to fetch them things despite being in a regular golf cart and wearing our (not beverage or course) company polos. Part of me wants to just say “it was hot anyone could make that mistake!” But part of me also feels like it was sexist and, based on prior experiences, it’s hard not to feel that way. Thoughts on and advice for these situations?

Happens to me all the time! Golf is sexist af, ugh. The worst part is the most of these douchebags aren’t even good.
I always tell them that my services are $100 per person for one fetch, double if it’s hot

like

Beer, water, hotdog, Coke, towel

This story def sounds made up since people don’t ask the cart girl to fetch them things… that’s not a thing that occurs at golf courses

Just admit that you made up or extremely exaggerated your experience at the golf course

Has anyone else had a mentor (assigned to them by the Company) who seemed to have it out for you? I mean downright sabotage to make you look bad left and right. I didn’t realize it at first. She was fake friendly, but she was discrete too. Some of the executives thought she was amazing, but I had to clean up her work all the time. She wasn’t above me either on the chain of command. Later I found out she had tried for the exec assistant role and they didn’t choose her, they wanted me instead.
