I am a lawyer. Went back to work part time a year ago when my youngest went to school. I'd been off for 3 years.
Today in a meeting, a male colleague (who is about half as experienced as me, but who is senior in job "title" because he works full time) asked me to open a file for one of his matters. This is something that we do ourselves, or get a secretary to do so I was bit baffled that he asked me to do it for him. It doesn't take long to do, and I didn't want to be unhelpful, so I just said yes.
Afterwards though I was really annoyed. I thought he must either view me as his assistant, or maybe a secretary. Or is he just giving a task to a colleague. I know it's just a form to fill in but is it indicative of how he sees me generally?
Aibu to be pissed off that he asked me to do this? Or do I just have to suck it up because ultimately he is seen as more "senior" by the firm?

to think I should have told my colleague where to stick his file?
