so if you could be here around 9:00 that
would be great
thank your lucky stars these aren’t the
guys or gals you’re working for hi I’m
Katherine Parker you must be Tess
welcome to watchmojo.com and today we’re
counting down our picks for the top ten
terrible movie bosses point is ladies
and gentlemen that greed for lack of a
better word is good for this list we’re
choosing those big screen upper
management bows that left us wanting to
call in sick to work just to avoid any
sort of interaction whether they were
frightening intimidating cruel or just
plain and competent
this team is showing signs of
improvement I didn’t think we’d win 15
games all here number 10 buddy Ackerman
swimming with sharks what are you doing
the verbally abusive sadistic and
tyrannical behavior of this boss from
hell is just the tip of the iceberg do
me a big favor shut up listen and learn
when it comes to learning how to get
ahead in business buddy Ackerman’s
pushes his assistant to the edge of
sanity in this 90s comedy drama you have
no brain with public humiliation and
seething insults it’s best to give this
hard-to-please boss what he wants to
avoid being singled out for office Wyatt
ridicule though guy admittedly discovers
what’s behind it all by the film’s dark
conclusion listen baby
he can’t his way through the ranks
nearly as well as you can he’s got a
kick and fight and scratch his way there
he doesn’t have a choice you have
nothing to contribute to this so stay
the number-9 Daniel cleaver Bridget
Jones’s Diary he from absolutely
enormous punches this devilish cat is
one boss we’d think twice about working
for and hitting the sheets with due to
his tendency to take his relationships
with his colleagues beyond professional
levels
this is Lara from the New York office
Laura this is Bridget
heyno from sexual harassment to bedding
multiple women during business trips to
lying about an affair in order to
tarnish the name of an old adversary
it’s cleared that the blurred lines of
this bosses moral compass make for one
unsavory office superior anyway listen
don’t let him ruin our evening and yes
even despite you Grant’s witty charm it
didn’t work out with Daniel cleaver
number eight Blake Glengarry Glen Ross
coffee’s for closers only while the
screen time for this memorable boss was
less than 10 minutes they clearly left a
lasting impression providing a blueprint
for business men everywhere this badass
boss tells it like it is with an intense
performance by Alec Baldwin a B C a
always BB c– closing always be closing
while it might be inspirational to the
business world there’s no denying that
we’d rather not have to answer to this
guy in real life if our sales
performance was left in stellar AI DEA
attention interest decision action
attention do I have your attention
interest
are you interested I know you are cuz
its or walk you close or you hit the
bricks number seven
Rachel Phelps major league you ought to
be grateful I can still afford to pay
your salary after inheriting the
Cleveland Indians for her late husband
this former Vegas showgirl has big plans
for the fate of her new baseball team
and will do anything to get what she
wants how about a series of fines for
good play maybe a thirty thousand dollar
bonus for the guy
or at least valuable player maybe the
problem is we’re coddling these guys too
much from demoralizing her players to
barging into their locker room to hold
negotiations and both humiliating and
intimidating anyone who stands in her
way it’s clear that it would take some
big balls indeed to stand up to this
nasty lady hunts been looking good out
there today
don’t worry he’ll blow it making us all
want to root root root for the home team
but this nickel-and-dime stop I’m gonna
get that bitch on the phone
she wanted to talk to the bitch yeah
don’t you think you ought to cover
yourself with a towel first mr. Brown
we’re out of towel I’m too old to go
diving in a locker I can take it a few
counts
number six dr. Julia Harris Bobby pellet
and David harken Horrible Bosses
according to this you were two minutes
late so either you’re a liar or this
system is off by a full minute what’s
worse than one terrible boss how about
three in fact
these bad or should we say Horrible
Bosses boast behavior so horrific it
prompts they’re desperate employees to
go beyond the boundaries of revenge
fantasy into full-on murder save up just
how horrible are these bosses blackmail
sexual harassment sadistic and outright
douchy behavior just to name a few shit
I don’t care about this company why you
this is just an ATM to me and we thought
our boss was bad just kidding
it’s not like we’re gonna actually kill
our bosses number five Jay jonah Jameson
spider-man franchise what am i gods
while the bark of this office curmudgeon
may have been worse than his bike
there’s no denying you’d never want to
be on the receiving end of the verbal
berating from this no-nonsense
editor-in-chief so now give me that
maybe 300 that’s a standard freelance
fee Tara page one run that photo instead
with a gruff fast-paced manner of
speaking and a condescending tone the
verbal onslaught of this news making man
of action would cause even the most
seasoned of journalists to cower under
their desks as they scramble to find the
next big headline spider-man hero or
menace so kudos to Spidey for enduring
him for so long but I never said you
have a job meet I’ll send you a nice
bunch of Christmas meat best I can do
get out of here
bring me more photos number for Mark
Zuckerberg the social network I invented
Facebook how does a young genius become
the creator of one of the most popular
Internet services in history by becoming
one of the most ruthless businessmen
you’ve ever seen oh yeah that reminds me
um we’re gonna need more money more or
at least that’s how he appears in this
larger-than-life film depicting the
notorious origins of Facebook you know
you really don’t need a forensics team
to get to the bottom of this if you guys
were the inventors of Facebook
you’d have invented Facebook Mark
Zuckerberg goes from dorm room geek to
multi-millionaire mogul using financial
funders classmates and even his best
friend as stepping-stones along the way
better lawyer up asshole cuz I’m not
coming back for 30% I’m coming back for
everything we’re pretty sure that kind
of behavior wouldn’t get many likes in
the world of social media but hey that’s
business right
number three Miranda Priestly The Devil
Wears Prada the icy stare of this
fashion magazine matriarch sent shivers
down the spines of audiences everywhere
and Emily yes that’s all impossible to
please the snobby ice queen proved that
fashion is fickle and good intentions
are as useless as last season’s shoes
when I do with sadistic wit a
condescending attitude and a love for
power games played at the expense of her
subordinates this employer is someone
we’d love to see go out of style and
before today you had never heard of me
no and you have no style or sense of
fashion oh and she may or may not be
based on the real-life editor of Vogue
magazine
just sayin we have all the published
Tyra Potter books twins want to know
what happens next you want the
unpublished manuscript what we know
everyone in publishing it shouldn’t be a
problem should it and you can do
anything right
number two bill Lumbergh office space
hello Peter
what’s happening this office cubicle
nemesis struck a major chord with the
dot-com generation as the division VP
you love to hate yeah with an arrogant
attitude questionable fashion sense and
a tendency to micromanage everyone
around him bill Lumbergh
non-confrontational communication style
would test anyone’s patience I’m gonna
have to go ahead and sort of disagree
with you there and have them paying to
be pink-slipped the next time they were
having a case of the Mondays
mail we’re gonna need to go ahead and
move you downstairs into storage be
known before we reveal our number one

for paying bills without money a time
for finding yourself a year older and
not a penny richer

will board the chopper with my hostage
anybody tries to stop me the old geezer
gets it remember all the things we did
no bonus how did you get a bonus
I cut out bonuses this year yeah thanks
for telling us rim baby is never having
to say you’re sorry number one John
Milton the devil’s advocate why because
I never rejected him in spite of all his
imperfections I’m a fan of man sometimes
we might feel like our boss is from the
seventh circle of hell
but imagine if you were actually working
for the devil himself vanity is
definitely my favorite sin in this
horror thriller a hotshot lawyer is
seduced by wealth and the promises of
his new boss
but his acceptance of the job comes with
terrifying consequences that lead him
into a downward spiral of infernal
proportions how the hell did that happen
I’m the hand of Mona Lisa’s skirt
I’m a surprise kept they don’t see me
coming with a frightening performance by
Al Pacino John Milton is one bad boss

eternity who in their right mind Kevin
