* Creator/TheBBC RadioDrama adaptation of ''Discworld/GuardsGuards'' introduces a bit of a RunningGag where the Patrician gets impatient and cross when his secretary fails to appear instantly when summoned, then is startled when the man [[ButlerSpace suddenly does appear instantly]]. Harmless enough, but it comes across as a contributing factor to why [[spoiler:said secretary summoned a dragon with which to take over the city and threw the Patrician in the dungeon]].

* Tsunade from ''{{Manga/Naruto}}'' is very much this, especially in the fillers. As Hokage (the chief of the village), she is shown to have a very short temper and is strict about shinobi going on missions and reporting back to her immediately upon completion. When enraged, she would throw her chair and other furniture out the window, and have [[ThoseTwoGuys Izumo and Kotetsu]] retrieve them.

* Zeff, Sanji's mentor in ''Manga/OnePiece'', has the reputation of one, barking orders at his cooks like a DrillSergeantNasty and using harsh punishments when they mess up. (Whenever Sanji got a recipe wrong and botched it, Zeff made him ''eat it''.) He refuses to hire female cooks or waitresses because he forbids abuse of women, but does not show favoritism to employees (if he hired one, he'd have to treat her the same way, which he will not). Thing is, ''it works''. It's the biggest reason Sanji has been a success and Zeff's place is popular.
