I don’t even need to tell you why we have a list of recommendations based on this theme, because chances are that you probably have binge-watched Family Man 2 and the scene where Srikant vents out his angst and frustration on his not-so-cool manager has made you echo ‘same’ or take a sigh of some secret cathartic relief. 

Anyway, not all employee-boss relationships are sour and here are some movies and series we recommend you to check out in case you have been missing your boss too much during this lockdown:

Well if you have a manager like Michael Scott, then I truly hope that your personality type is similar to Dwight Schrute or Jim. 

A manager unlike anyone we know, this series mocks the hell out of a quintessential office space and paints how your manager, who feels he is always right and has your best interest at heart, is actually painstakingly wrong most of the time. 

The Office continues to be one of the best series out there because of how 'real' it is.

The title is kind of self-suggestive but if you need more context, then, it is a movie about three employees who plan on killing their evil bosses. 

In a comedy of errors, havoc ensues and chaos follows.

This is a heart warming movie which shows the evolution of a wonderful relationship that a boss shares with her intern, who is infact a 70-year-old man. 

This one teaches you an important lesson about life that the employer doesn’t always know more about than the employee.

 A movie which conceptualises what loyalty means in the form of an employee named Rahul ( SRK) who whitewashes every lie and takes bootlicking to another level to keep his boss (Aditya Pancholi) happy and satisfied with his work, in order to climb the corporate ladder easily.

Based on a series named Ugly Betty, this one was a big hit back in the early 2000’s when it was released. 

This series not only preached loyalty between an employee and her boss but proved that sometimes, you can also find love in your own ‘sir’! 

Jokes apart, this show sent a message that how one should not hire people based on their looks but calibre instead.
