Ive done all of those things in my current job, and they are unrelated to my actual job description. None of them are particularly hard. Heck, I've installed servers, welded mounting brackets, soldered components, run cabling, designed letterheads, built and maintained VM production servers in AWS, written software, visited clients, delivered goods, done sound design, edited video, written company policy, managed DNS records, and kept all the office plants watered and healthy. Im a technical writer. Some jobs just do be like that.
Sounds like you worked for some fucking stupid companies. Do what you're hired to do, not be an entire IT department, custodian staff and administration. You are the only one losing in that situation.
They pay me heaps, my job is interesting, I get to learn tons of new skills on their dime, and I average about 4 hours of actual work a day.
