Trypticon doesn't like to think of himself as the "boss" of the Mercenaries, goodness no. That feels too corporate-y. The Mercenaries are more like a family! And families are open to working unpaid overtime and weekends, right? We're a team! A team that feels like a friendly, informal work environment, so long as you work inerrantly. And by inerrantly, we also mean going the extra mile. That's what teams and families do. We here at the Team Family Mercenaries expect results. Oh, you had a problem? You're fired. You're all fired. You don't get to use the foosball table in lieu of salary anymore.
| “ | Boss isn't really an accurate description. I think of myself more as a firm yet fair employer, who expects nothing less than dedicated employees who will always do their best. | ” |
