Ok...Uberboss is gone til the end of summer. Uber2 is the government guy acting on his behalf while he's gone... down to earth guy, but Uber2 just doesn't sound right... too confusing.

Sortaboss isn't Sorta anymore. With Bossman's death, he's the senior analyst (even if he is currently the only analyst) - eventually there will be a replacement, but even then, he'll be the one with seniority.

So Sorta no longer works, and I don't think it's good for me to keep thinking of him that way, anyway... but I am damn sure not going to start referring to him as Bossman, or even Bossman2. That nickname is officially retired.

Any ideas?

How about the General & the Major? Sorta goes with the military theme.

Always thoguth 'Stripes' for the rank just below another rank would work. May not for you.
