Retail management

A dark art of being able to survive while being held responsible for issues and situations outside of your control by members of the public and by those who outrank you. Often used as the cause of and solution to all of the problems of unreasonable people. Long term exposure often leads to a lack of empathy, high tolerance to pain, apathy, institutionalisation and a lack of self care. In extreme cases can lead to the illusion of job security and belief in corporate policies.

daddy manager

The superior one in a company that is only allowed to do certain things, because:
A. The employees are too stupid to do them
or

B. The employees aren't qualified to do them.
or
C. He just wants to show everyone how smart and great he is (whether or not he indeed really is).

Kind of like a relationship where "only daddy is allowed to touch the knives" to a 3 year old.
Customer: I want to buy that bottle of crown royale
Clerk: Ok!
Clerk #2: No wait! Alcohol sales need manager approval.

Clerk: Oh, so we have to wait for daddy manager to come approve the sale?!?! Bullshit!

Picture Manager

The picture manager usually will tell their "employee" to take certain pictures in certain outfits and in certain poses. The "employee" will send them to the Picture Manager first then he'll approve of them. As payment, the "employee" will obey and receive rewards.
"I have some pictures, prompted by my picture manager ;)"

admin manager

An ASDA employee with absolutely no earthly use. A cretinous bitch suffering a vastly over inflated sense of self-importance who lurks in the shadows waiting to pounce upon, and emotionally destroy, unsuspecting junior staff.
What happened to the new bloke?
He dared to look the admin manager in the eye, she tore out his soul and beat him to death with it.

Manager Mess

When something is nearly perfect and management decides it's a terrible mess anyway
Employee 1: alright almost done. I'll be finished in 5, 4, 3, 2,
Manager: This is terrible, look at this mess!
Employee 1: where is this mess she's complaining about?
Employee 2: there it is, it's a manager mess
