Mean Boss	comment	The boss that means well and does well, except for a few things. He's certainly given the higher-ups every reason to have confidence in him. He's competent, knows what he's doing, and keeps his workers motivated. It's the way that he keeps them motivated that's the problem. He'll yell at you for being a minute late, give you mountains of work the night before it's due, have a heart attack any time you even suggest that you might deserve a raise for all your hard work, and nearly rip your head off at the drop of a hat. Might smoke big, smelly cigars, and is often a Sir Swears-a-Lot, assuming the medium is rated R (or the equivalent). He may be a money-grubber, egocentric, or just plain ornery. Very often played for laughs. Compare Dr. Jerk, Da Chief, and Da Editor, three other tropes with frequent crossover. For the Drill Sergeant Nasty, it's an unavoidable part of the job. Not to be confused with a Bad Boss, who isn't just a Jerkass to his co-workers, but so evil that he actually maims or kills them, though quite a few are both. Related to the Pointy-Haired Boss (except for their respective competence levels). Such bosses may feature in a negative Job Song. Godwin's Law of Facial Hair can go with this when it comes to mocking Hitler or any other authoritarian.

This results in her being quite quick to move to Mr. Carrisford's household when he decides to hire a French maid.

Oddly enough, considering Roy's bosses (who are the ones who ordered such things as the genocide of Ishval) and the fact that he's enough of A Father to His Men that some of them decide to help him with his underground rebellion, he's a comparative subversion. Maes Hughes ends up here through general loopiness in the 2003 anime, retaining a cheerful and friendly demeanour but also piling work on poor Sheska by the ton.

Rather than taking care of them properly, LaCroque mistreats her victims and punishes them for "complaining", which is more often than not about things that could be life-threatening. One particularly despicable example was when Fifi lost control of her coughing and ruined the lace that she was working on. Does LaCroque help her? Nope! She sentences Fifi to working on black lace, which would blind the latter as another slave reveals is possible. A pissed Madeline defends Fifi and gives LaCroque a "The Reason You Suck" Speech for being cruel, but this only makes LaCroque even angrier instead of making her go through a Heel Realisation.

However, he does pay his grandson the odd backhanded compliment when he does something particularly heroic that will give the paper good publicity.

Mean Boss / int_538833a4	comment	Retail: Stuart is a combination of this and Pointy-Haired Boss. Takes pride in the fact that most employees hate him. The initial district manager, Jerry, really fit the part as the jerk boss, leading Marla to comment that he was a "mean-spirited jerk" (which Jerry unfortunately overheard). In the blog of the strip's character Cooper (www.coopersretailblog.com), he described Jerry as a "douchebag." In Jerry's last appearance in the strip it was revealed that he misremembered Marla's name on purpose. The nadir of this trope has to be Mina in Delman's, who backstabbed her former boss in order to get the manager's position, pretty much leaves her employees in a 'sink or swim' scenario, and encourages employees to snitch on each other. A couple weeks working under her showed Brice how much worse he could have-and could be-than when he worked for Marla.

That's not even getting into his hatred of U62 (stemming from George thinking he could be friendly and return a package intended for RJ that had been delivered to U62 by mistake), which snowballs into a full-blown evil plan to get rid of his competition (when the latest Nielsen ratings emerge and show U62 as having dethroned channel 8 from the top spot), and his Engineered Public Confession where he rants about his hatred for everyone in the city he lives in. Fortunately, he gets a heaping helping of Laser-Guided Karma (as Weird Al detested Karma Houdini villains and made sure to give RJ his comeuppance many times over).

Mean Boss / int_6276800c	comment	Played with by The Nostalgia Critic. While he is a jackass to his subordinates (especially first meetings with newbies), it's very rare that he won't get punished or one-upped. In a few cases, he'll have a breakdown and they'll go nice and comfort-y. He's rather complicated, y'see. Ever since he had gotten assistants, he tends to "not be very nice" to them. He punches Malcolm in the face simply for mentioning the cartoon Doug, then later puts him in a coma after mentioning the Ducktales theme song, (which Nostalgia Critic had just minutes earlier gotten out of his head from the Ducktales review two years earlier) The Blues Brothers 2000 review has Tamara overdose on "Not caring pills" and apparently dying while NC doesn't even bother to turn around. Though averted with Mati. As he treated Mati like crap throughout the first few years, then the character died causing NC to go into a massive depression of guilt. And then a number of episodes suggest that the Nostalgia Critic is also working under a mean boss: his own brother. Likewise, The Nostalgia Chick is abusive, demanding and oblivious to her crew's dislike of what she does to them.

In fairness, his firing Klump in the second film comes after he's sexually assaulted by a giant hamster Klump created on accident, so his reaction is understandable, and he does redeem himself a little by siding with Klump to stop Buddy Love from stealing the patent for the fountain of youth formula in the climax of the same movie.

She is a Tiny Tyrannical Girl who is extremely hot-blooded and has a short temper, often yells at her agents, and even manages to give an Implied Death Threat to Olive and Otto in one episode. However, she goes through Character Development and becomes a Benevolent Boss by Season 2 as a result of critics complaining about her bad attitude and personality. This earned them a well-aimed Take That! in the Season 2 premiere, "First Day".

Mean Boss / int_9e2dbb4d	comment	Regular Show: While Mordecai and Rigby are by no means decent employees most of the time, neither is Benson a particularly good boss. He barely ever trains the duo for the tasks he asks done, then berates them for not doing what he wanted how he wanted; he rarely gives positive reinforcement and often goes out of his way to single them out; he even once threatened to fire Mordecai and Rigby for something Muscle Man did, indicating he wanted an excuse to get rid of them; he continually doles out expectations that by all means he knows perfectly well can't be met; combine with a chip on his shoulder and blatant favoritism, and it shouldn't be any surprise that he gets poor results from the slackers. Mr. Maellard is way worse than Benson. He generally gets angry for no reason and treats Benson like a butler who doesn't work right, which is probably the reason Benson is such an angry boss. He is taking in everything Mr. Maellard throws at him and taking it out on Mordecai and Rigby.

(Whenever Sanji got a recipe wrong and botched it, Zeff made him eat it.) He refuses to hire female cooks or waitresses because he forbids abuse of women, but does not show favoritism to employees (if he hired one, he'd have to treat her the same way, which he will not). Thing is, it works. It's the biggest reason Sanji has been a success and Zeff's place is popular.

Zapp Branigan is a more straightforward example, being completly abusive to his assistant, Kif. However, in War is the H-word, Zapp assigned Fry to be Kif's assistant. He proved to be just as capable of being a bad boss when given power although Kif could have acted like this to take his frustrations of Zapp out on Fry Hermes Conrad, while not actually the CEO of Planet Express is a beaureaucrat who is sometimes shown to have executive powers such as managing employee wages and on occasion, firing people. However he is shown to be very mean and abusive towards Zoidberg as Hermes frequently deducts Zoidberg's paychecks for no reasons and often calls him "ya filthy crab", which is considered to be a racist slur as Zoidberg is a decapodian with crab and lobster like features.

Later on, he forces Max to walk into a radiation chamber which had already been primed (but not activated) to clear a door jam, leading to Max's irradiation when the door slams shut once the jam is cleared. At least he clearly feels bad about this, but he nevertheless forced Max into an extremely unsafe situation. However, the foreman isn't nearly as bad as Carlyle, who is more concerned about Max ruining the bedding in the medical bay than his condition, and even tells his foreman to cover his mouth so they won't breathe the same air.

While sending a naive Butt-Monkey toady page to fetch a breastplate stretcher, which, obviously, doesn't exist, could be seen as a harmless prank, berating the Small Council and purposefully ignoring their advice is not. Moreover, deliberately throwing his infidelity into the face of his bodyguard, by keeping him posted on the door while loudly cheating on Cersei, seems both cruel and stupid - especially since his bodyguard is also his brother-in-law, and incidentally is called the Kingslayer for killing the last man he was guarding.

He also implies in the same strip that he didn't send Roger the memo and that he wants Roger at his side specifically because Roger already meets the required directions without knowing it. In another strip he had Roger work as a clown at his son's birthday party (that's in Roger's job description; he thought it was a joke when he was hired; a lot of what happened at the party is likely best left to the imagination, but Pembrook begged him not to sue.)

Some of the dorm's students plead to the headmaster to let them move out of it at one point because of this. Azul once uses magical contracts to enslave other students into working at his lounge and physically prevent them from resisting. Kalim, seeing his dorm's low academic performance, starts subjecting them to Training from Hell through the holidays while other students are off celebrating. The catch is this is Out of Character for him, and he is actually an easy-going, affable guy. This is the result of Mind Control by his vice-dorm leader and servant Jamil in order to discredit him.

Fortunately, Numbuh 362, the Supreme Leader of the organization, is much nicer. Mr. Boss is the Big Bad of the show (well one of them), but he's this towards his normal employees.

Mean Boss / int_d8c2cfe4	comment	Hank Pym in Ant-Man and Ant-Man and the Wasp is a downplayed example but he is not pleasant to work with, as he uses threats and manipulation to force Scott to work for him. It is revealed by his ex-colleague Bill that he has driven most of his other colleagues away due to his hostility and aggression.

Mean Boss / int_e25322af	comment	Bubs of Homestar Runner. It's one thing to make your employees wear a hot dog clown suit as part of their job, but it's another to make them buy the costume out of their pocket from the costume palace. On the subtler side, Bubs gets away with not giving Pom Pom any breaks, because he wasn't able to get into a labor union. Even to those who are in the union, Bubs will only give them one smoking, bathroom, coffee and maternity leave break a day.

Sure enough, at the company's holiday party, Elizabeth gets drunk and her assistant Miriam calls Sunny (Elizabeth's boyfriend) to pick her up. Elizabeth rewards Miriam by firing her just before Sunny takes her home. After that, she moves on to firing employees who question her vision.

Mean Boss / int_f5e30a17	comment	In Stand Still, Stay Silent, the Just Before the End prologue features a couple of these: The Denmark portion is about a man named Michael Madsen who's on the way to Bornholm island to drop his cat at his sister's place because he doesn't trust a cat hotel to take care of it correctly during an important business meeting. He's seen talking on the phone with his boss, who's furious at him for taking the trip, treats the whole thing as Skewed Priorities, and insists he come back by the next morning by helicopter if needed, threatening to fire him otherwise. Then the Danish borders suddenly closing end up meaning that Michael is getting stuck on the island through no fault of his own. His boss fires him on the spot anyway. In the Finland portion, Aino Hotakainen does not complain about her boss herself, but her family members sure like to badmouth her and depict her as such a boss. The only possible justification seen is Aino being more than eight months pregnant and still working as a waitress.

Mean Boss / int_fdbace96	comment	Grunkle Stan from Gravity Falls, made especially evident in the episode "Boss Mabel". The episode more or less justifies it since Mabel as the Benevolent Boss was taken advantage of by Wendy, and run up the wall by Soos' ineptitude. By the end, Mabel concedes to Grunkle Stan that being the boss requires a mentality to deal with the shenanigans of his employees.
