Lauren's boss:
- Overall vibe is a bit Hank Scorpio (please go watch The Simpsons episode with him if you haven't, it's the best)
- He needs a ridiculous outfit though, still going to do the whole spandex thing (maybe this will be part of Lauren's job, has to be sure it's not inappropriate by HR standards)
- Things he could possibly want: amass power and have his own country and maybe, eventually the world; radical changes to our energy use; just a lot of money; institute a true meritocracy; isn't sure so he's just amassing power and wealth and will figure it out later (has vague corporate sounding mission statements when asked what his goal is)
- Lauren doesn't much care what the mission is, it's a good job
- Has the complex have a uniform, but there are casual Fridays (black corporate wear, very polished, include acceptable hair styles)
- Inherited the company from his mother who is retired (she perhaps comes to visit), she wished he had been born a girl (maybe also she had a mission, but never revealed it to Lauren's boss or Lauren's boss never understood it which is why he keeps everything vague)
- Consults with Lauren on what the annual winter holiday gift should be
- Monitors glassdoor reviews and talks to Lauren and other HR people about them
- Talks with Lauren about various health-related rewards for employees (like a prize for the division that bikes the most into work or sets up carpools)
- Appears, at least via video chat, at each employee's birthday party
- Constantly thinking of rebranding (but doesn't follow through because he always determines his original brand is best)
- No tattoos
- Very clean cut
- Plays golf
- Loves using corporate jargon and vague new words as well as things like 'synergy' (wants to coin his own, but struggles, but does publish a book with the title as one he thinks is quite good)
