rdfs:comment | - Basic Trope: Only Sane Man, but in the workplace.
* Straight: Alice often has to keep her co-workers Bob, Claire, and Danny under control.
* Exaggerated: She spends more time doing this than she spends actually doing her job.
* Downplayed: Alice will occasionally have to calm her co-workers down, but not much else.
* Justified: Hey, someone's gotta keep these people in line!
* Inverted: Alice is the only quirky co-worker of an otherwise sane cast. They spend most of their time keeping her under control.
* Subverted: Alice is actually just as insane as the rest of them.
* Double Subverted: ...but she knows that she has to behave herself at work, and tries to make the others do the same.
* Parodied: Every workplace in Troperville has someone like this.
* Zig
