Most founders think they know what their employees do all day. They wrote the job description once, maybe years ago, and they've been operating off that mental picture ever since. But jobs drift. Responsibilities shift quietly, one small change at a time, until the role in front of you barely resembles the one you built.
This episode goes underneath the classification rules to ask a harder question: do you actually know what the job has become? We dig into why founders classify the person instead of the position, how management roles quietly turn back into hands-on work as a company grows, and why "this would be easier to administer" is often doing more of the decision-making than anyone wants to admit. If you've ever assumed a job title was still telling you the truth, this one's for you.
