Isn't this and the Queen of Spades also an overused trope? Not that I could think of something better, but ... .Too over-used trope by now. But wouldn't mind "temporary new boss" needs convincing / company get-away where all the bosses bring their "special" executives and some sexy competitive games ensue / office party shenanigans (summer: bikinis / halloween: costumes / christmas: die hard jk drunken mistletoe leading to 1on1 and group naughtiness)
But on the other hand: If it is well done, I dont mind some recycling .
