An Obligatory "Founder Mode" Post

Yeah I think this encapsulates really well what I don&#x27;t like about &quot;founder mode&quot;. Is it really &quot;founder mode&quot; or is it &quot;Here are the reasons why I&#x27;m amazing and you all suck&quot;. A huge amount of these posts about what it means to be a founder is just very transparent bragging combined with a determination to bitch about other people.<p>I get it, you don&#x27;t like typical corporate style management. Like Scott Galloway points out, part of the reason he&#x27;s a founder is that he can&#x27;t work for someone else&#x27;s company. That&#x27;s fine. But if your big take-aways are &quot;You should respect me more and also you&#x27;re less competent than you think&quot; well that&#x27;s not really anything to do with founding a company is it. That&#x27;s just the exact old status games.
