Why not? He's a good, self starting worker. I'd love to have him on a team. Is the insinuation that, because someone worked in a dimly viewed industry, they won't be a good match for a more "upstanding" startup? Let's be honest here. Most startups aren't saints either. They exist to make money and nothing else. Unless you incorporate as a California B-Corp, you are legally obligated to make money for your shareholders at the cost of everything else. Or is the insinuation that, because someone worked a "dirty" job they might turn out to be a corrupt employee (doing "bad things" like stealing company money, manipulating co-workers for personal gain, etc)? No, I don't believe there is any correlation between someone willing to work a dirty job and someone being a shitty person.
