Bos
/Sounds like "BOHS" (as in "boat")/
Chicano Spanglish for the boss or employer, from English "boss." El bos is the one who signs your check and calls the shots at work, different from the foreman who just supervises the crew.
“The boss doesn't want to pay overtime even when we work twelve hours.”
“Talk to the boss if you want to request a day off.”
