Yep. And that's why, if it isn't your first rodeo, you can end up in a weird headspace as an early employee, because cofounders may act like they know a lot of things they don't (including how to lead), and you know that they are still learning.

You kind of have to top from bottom sometimes.

I feel like topping from the bottom is an underappreciated skillset that can be really helpful for an employee and their boss. Done right, the employee looks almost telepathic and prescient. Done wrong and the employee looks like a jerk, but ymmv...
