Literally just say “petite bourgeoisie”

It varies from industry to industry, but from my own experience I've heard of people making tens of millions who still have to pop in and drive a truck or handle a lot of paperwork if they're missing personnel for whatever reason. Even if it's not a regular thing, that would still fall under the Marxist definition of petite bourgeois.

No one making tens of millions of dollars has to do that. They choose to occasionally do that rather than hire enough workers to cover foreseeable gaps like someone getting sick or quitting, or simply hiring a manager who will do whatever they do, including occasionally pop in and do the productive work itself.
