> Your job title isn't some kind of license to refuse work you don't want to do.

Why, yes it is. If you're a janitor you're not expected to code.

In some places a job title and job description are even mandatory and they are used in case of a labour dispute. Whether this is a good for companies and employees is a separate question, but it's a big stretch to say that job titles aren't relevant.




At a startup you should expect to do anything.


Sure. The claim I was referring to didn't specify startups, though.
