I'll just consider myself happy I don't work with a manager like you, then. The company doesn't exist for me to hack on cool new things. Of course not. But what you fail to understand is that I'm a very intelligent person who is not planning on spending the rest of my life doing shitty simple e-commerce UIs, or whatever it is that you do. It's easy to think nothing but the goals of the company matter, especially if you're an awful founder, but the world just doesn't work that way. We all need to move on when the company likely dies, and I don't want four years of "I had no choice but to work with crap" on my resume when this happens, just because I had an asshole boss who hated other people who did smart things around him.
