It's weird that you read this book and felt he was a jerk, but... *shrug*
Ron Swanson is a fictional character. Nick Offerman is a real human being and as such, he might have aspects of his personality that aren't designed to appeal to as broad an audience as possible.
I'd recommend you look through the book again, as there are quite a few bits about living a life of kindness, being polite, taking your lumps as you earn them, embracing gratitude and standing by your friends in loyalty.
So, to answer your question, "Does Nick Offerman have to be a jerk?" He wasn't.

I think you got the two confused.

Curious why you think he's a jerk. He came off as funny and sweet to me. Have you ever heard the man giggle?
