Yes.

A big part of being a business owner is that you fall on the spectrum of being an asshole. A little bit or a lot.

It takes being an asshole to do large things. And people end up hating you for it.

The bigger things you do, the bigger of an asshole you end up being.

Quick, name me the leader of a large company who is not an asshole…

And if they are not publicly one, privately they are.

The traits of a leader requires that at least half of the people you are leading will disagree with you.

So yes, why not? I would be an employee hired to do whatever would be needed.

Shift levers. Pound sand. Write code.

And since it is a free country, I would negotiate or accept a wage that I think is good for me and my family.

Or find another job.
