    Possibly wanted to see how they would react to the request when others were leaving early. Now the manager has the answer - the new guy is unreliable and workshy. Can't even be relied on to do one simple job.

    This was my thought - perhaps it's something they try with every new starter, to see who is flexible and doesn't presume / feel entitled to the early finish.

    Bob works at Sainsbury's, everyone is free to go home early, but the manager singles Bob out to stay to stack shelves even though there are 20 rows of shelves to stack, floors to clean, Melons to unpack in the warehouse.....

    Adam did it last month (before you started). Harold the month before. Peter the months before that. Charlie - the new boy - will be asked to do it next month.

    You might have a grievance if they kept asking you (only might). But from your OP, they asked you once ...
