She's alway putting them in their place with her 'don't you have some mock-ups due on my desk' and 'stop goofing around [/South Park] and get back to work.'

Which has always read to me like her feeling she has to be a hardass at the workplace in order to garner any respect. As if she's not afforded the ability to be "the nice boss" or "the caring boss." The player's coach isn't an option for her, or at least she doesn't think so. This show continually reinforces the idea that climbing the ladder, as a woman, tend to harden you because of all the sexist shit you have to endure.
