Thankfully that has not happened, but if it did (and this is what I tell interns I mentor), I would put a technical spin on whatever I was working on. For example, in my last role as a User Researcher, they were doing a lot of labeling and data collection by hand, so I automated it with a script. This freed up researchers time to do stuff that was actually beneficial.
Any role whether you like it or not can be turned into something you enjoy. A girl I mentored didn't like her role, and wanted to do Data Science, so I told her to take what she was working on it and find a way to apply data science to it, and then make it. Obviously, this should not take up all of your time, but if you can do it and show it, are they really going to get mad?
I believe about 80% of the time it is better to ask for forgiveness.
