I'm pretty sure Enviro was suggesting Dilbert's boss for Labor. Not sure if he meant State, White House Chief of Staff or Press Secretary for Dogbert.

Dilbert's boss has been described as 'micromanagement, gross incompetence and obliviousness to his surroundings'.

Thanks, guys, but I have an idea. How about Robert Reich? He was a real secretary of Labor under Bill Clinton.

Also, George Marshall of Secretary of State. He's the one who came up with The Marshall Plan.

That leaves Chief of Staff and Press Secretary.

I'm still not sure what exactly a chief of staff does. . .

According to Wikipedia:

Quote:
The duties of White House Chief of Staff vary greatly from one administration to another, and in fact, there is no legal requirement that the President even fill the position.

[...]

The roles of the Chief of Staff are both managerial and advisory and can include the following

Select key White House staff and supervise them
Structure the White House staff system
Control the flow of people into the Oval Office
Manage the flow of information
Protect the interests of the President
Negotiate with Congress, other members of the executive branch, and extragovernmental political groups to implement the President's agenda
Advise the President on various issues

Thanks, Skilpadde. Based on that, a chief of staff must be selected carefully. What individual would fill those roles nicely?

It seems that in the show, The West Wing, character C. J. Cregg has had both jobs at some point in the series. How about that?
