Rich guy with no one to fill "assistant" vacancy
I was just watching "Good Fortune" (2025) with Aziz Ansari and Seth Rogen and was thinking that (magical angel aside) the most unlikely thing in the movie is that there would be a super wealthy business man, who had a vacancy for an executive assistant, with zero idea how to fill it and apparently no other people in his life beating at his door to do that work. (That would be a *dream* job for so many people!) I think this is part of the "executive who can't function alone" trope, which is very common. But I can think of more movies where the trope is "executive loses the only person who can look after him/her" or "executive goes through multiple people because no one else is willing or able to work with them" (Devil Wears Prada; The Proposal etc) than movies where the plot is the executive just doesn't seem to know anyone at all. Is that a common subtrope?
