Sounds like you're better off elsewhere.
Although strangely, you use words like "countersigned job description" as if a job description is a legally binding contract. I think that it's reasonable and expected that the job you do does not always match word-for-word with the job description you had when were hired. Things change, and it's good to be flexible. You might have to learn a new programming language on the job, install some software, design some icons, and other programming-related tasks that were not technically in your job description.
But that doesn't extend to answering the main switchboard, getting the front door for people, and cleaning up coffee cups after a meeting.
You're right to say, "I'm a programmer not a receptionist". Good for you. But I would be less supportive if you said, "I am a programmer not a DBA" when asked to create a new index.
Good luck to you.
