dick-fold
A "dick-fold" (n) is a person who wrongly assumes he is superior to others, and thus tends to be unbearably arrogant and self-regarding, treating colleagues, employees, and companions with contempt.
The term is most often used to describe a person in a position of power; an employer.
It derives from the name of the former CEO of Lehamnn Brothers, Dick Fuld, a man famous for his bloated ego, whose hubris led to the collapse of the fourth largest investment bank in the USA, triggering a global recession in 2008.
