Hertz,
I've seen that work for some people, and other people have bit themselves in the ass with that attitude.
The speaker design/manufacture/AV chain I worked for had a speaker designer who knew electronics, and several times he was called on to troubleshoot and fix demonstration equipment in some of the stores. He finally started complaining, saying "this is not my job." This was stuff the company needed, that he could do, that was happening without interfering with his regular duties.
Well, sure enough, within a couple of months, it was not his job.
Fixing demo gear is different then changing someone's light bulbs. I quit my first AV job after the boss told me he wanted me to sort months of invoices as punishment for daring to show up at start time instead of two hours early to listen to a physics lecture.
