The Burger World Manager is a recurring character in Beavis and Butt-Head. He was the unnamed manager of Burger World for the first 8 seasons, the fast food restaurant Beavis and Butt-head work at, and serves as their boss. He usually gets annoyed when the duo don't do their jobs correctly or, more so, not at all, but never fires them. He is voiced by Mike Judge.

Physical appearance[]

The Burger World Manager is an overweight man with red (ginger) hair. He wears circular glasses and has a very small mustache. He is always seen wearing a white dress shirt with a red tie, brown casual pants with a black belt, and black shoes.

Personality[]

The Burger World Manager is shown to be in charge of Beavis and Butt-head whenever they are working at the restaurant. Whenever he appears, it is usually because the two are not doing their jobs or because they have caused mayhem. He gets very angry and frustrated whenever they do not do their jobs and he always threatens to fire them if they do not get back to work. Despite this, he has yet to fire them. This makes him one of the few characters to tolerate the duo. There are numerous possible reasons for this, such as him letting them keep their jobs out of genuine sympathy or that he is unable to find new employees to replace them because the two may have ruined Burger World's reputation.

The manager is shown to be lazy and irresponsible at times but takes his job more seriously unlike Beavis and Butt-head. This is shown by the fact that he never supervises the two when they are working and that he only appears to chastise them when they cause trouble. Whenever he is not scolding Beavis and Butt-head, he is usually seen sitting in his office. It is also shown that he can be very clumsy at times, such as in "Work is Death", where he burns his hands on the grill, gets his foot stuck in a bucket and slips on liquid where he is injured, and "Bathroom Break", when he attempts to clean up a mess and ends up slipping, let alone gets caught by the police pissing behind the dumpster because Beavis and Butt-head occupied the bathroom.

As shown in Virtual Stupidity and "Special Delivery", the manager serves customers at Burger World whenever the two are not working there. This is possibly because no other employees besides Beavis and Butt-head are employed at the restaurant.

Trivia[]

  • He is one of the few characters not to appear in Beavis and Butt-Head Do America or Beavis and Butt-Head Do the Universe.
  • The manager watches motivational videos, as mentioned in Virtual Stupidity.
  • In "Home Aide", it is revealed that Beavis was fired from Burger World in 1999 in the alternate universe where he and Butt-Head never time travelled, suggesting that the manager finally had enough of their antics and took action in that timeline.
    • It's additionally likely that a new manager was in the position who was less tolerant about the duo's antics, and saw them as a liability to the organisation.
  • He was replaced by an older, slimmer and dark-skinned manager in the 2022 revival. The new manager retains the original's glasses and slight accent, but his personality is calm and collected, and unlike his predecessor, he is more tolerant and incredibly patient with Beavis & Butthead's antics and for some reason never gets frustrated at them.
