As the Bob Dylan song goes, “Well, it may be the devil or it may be the Lord, but you’re gonna have to serve somebody.”

We all have a boss, sometimes more than one. If you’re Peter Gibbons, you have eight. The point is, there’s always someone higher than you on the food chain. Sometimes these people are great, but many times they are indifferent or worse - a horrible boss.

I’m a big fan of pop culture. Sometimes, I see characters and wonder, “what if they were my boss?” What if Buck Strickland were my boss? Michael Scott? Well, I’ve compiled a list and power ranked some of the more memorable bosses from fictional shows. That’s not to say this is the end all be all, just a few that I’ve kept my eye on.

    I’ll have to respectfully disagree and give Swanson an A+, as our philosophies on breakfast food and nothing getting done at work are extremely compatible.

    Dr. Perry Cox (Scrubs), A+++ Competent, straight-shooting guy who drowns his feelings in booze over a game of hockey. A real man’s man.

    Jay Pritchett: drives a new luxury car every week, iron fist at work, plays a shitload of golf, bangs Sofia Vergara.

    Give him a DD.

    Michael Scott is a friend first, a boss second, and probably an entertainer third.
