Was just fired for not completing a task that was not in my job description:(

Former employee of mcdonalds here, specifically employed in the capacity of deliveries (accepting and processing deliveries to the store not making them out of it).

This is a task i was never told to complete and cleaning the store was not an included function in my job description, i informed the manager as such but that did not seem to sway his power trip and i was sent home 15 minutes into my shift. I do not understand why employers must behave in this manner and quite frankly its disheartening to hear that your revenue stream may be terminated over such a trivial thing as not mopping a floor when i had never been told to do so.
