Voluntold is a combination of the terms voluntary and told. Of course, if you undertake a task deliberately, you do so on your own volition.

If you are asked to volunteer for a task but it is clear that you have no actual option, you have been voluntold.

It’s fairly amazing that they can get up and stand at attention in a matter of seconds even when they are soundly asleep.
