The Chief Operating Officer (or C.O.O. for short) is the Boardbot Boss. While Boardbot Headquarters has not been released and cannot be accessed, Toons are able to "fight" the C.O.O. during April Toons events via visiting Boredbot Headquarters. The C.O.O. first appeared in the 4th Corporate Clash Comic: The Day of Reckoning and made his first appearance in game during the April Toons 2020 event.
Attacks
The C.O.O. currently does not have any present attacks. All he will do is have a mindful discussion with whatever Toon is present for roughly 20 minutes.

Rewards
The "I survived Boredbot HQ" shirt, awarded in 2020
The Plant Tie, awarded in 2021
#1 Hat, awarded in 2022
The Rejected Sweater awarded in 2023
Ottoman Sticker awarded in 2024
For sitting through the Ottoman's fight, Toons are rewarded with an exclusive clothing item that differs for each year. Each item had been leftover belongings that the C.O.O. had, however, as the years progressed the rewards seem to be more thoughtful. In addition, Toons also felt the nice and warm satisfaction of interacting with such a great character.
Music
Radio tracks play throughout the encounter with the C.O.O. Most of these tracks are from areas currently in the game, but some tease tracks used in upcoming content.
Some radio tracks have names listed in the metadata that may hint at where they play. Please keep in mind that these names may be red herrings.
Notes:
- Some radio tracks are made up of Cog voice clips, and as such they have been omitted from this list. Repeat tracks from previous years will not be listed either.
