Answer:

When you are on assignment and the job site supervisor asks you to do something from or in addition to your original job description, you should:

1. Call your Employment Service Representative and get approval before doing it.

Explanation:

It is not every task that you are assigned outside your original job description that you should accept to execute.  You must do a balancing act to differentiate tasks that distract you from your originally assigned responsibilities from those that will simultaneously enhance your career and your employer's interest.  The tasks which provide you with good learning opportunities should be accepted.  But those tasks that lead to burnout and stress should not be taken without proper consultation and re-consideration of employment terms.
