Who would you work for if you were a minion?

The Monarch from the Venture 'verse, provided that I can worm my way into 21's place. That place being the genre savvy henchman that never gets killed in a brutal and unspeakably violent manner (i.e. by Brock Sampson).
I'd have to say I'd want to work under the real-life Genghis Khan. I mean, he conquered an area larger than the Roman Empire in a single lifetime, and made a kingdom out of it. He's a pretty cool guy; wipes out entire civilizations and tries to get all the women he possibly can (I've heard him described as 'collects princesses like a kid collects baseball cards'). He's a little over the top when it comes to loyalty, but overall he's a guy I'd be proud to work for.
I'd like to work for Attila, who spent many years bullying the Eastern Roman like a mafia don. I'd also like to work for any of the guys who lead any of the 7 Sackings of Rome (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sack_of_Rome).
As for fictional overlords...meh. I'll have to think about it.

H.A.R.M. Those jumpsuits are oh so flattering. I could be part of brilliant dialogue like this too...
Street Merchant: You look like you need a monkey.
HARM Agent: Excuse me?
Street Merchant: I have a very fine monkey for you. Only twenty dollars, American.
HARM Agent: Sorry, I don't want a monkey.
Street Merchant: What do you mean?
HARM Agent: I don't want a monkey!
Street Merchant: Why not?
HARM Agent: Because I don't like monkeys, now get that filthy beast away from me!
Street Merchant: Are you insulting my monkey?
HARM Agent: I'm sure it's a perfectly excellent monkey, but I don't want it. Now please leave, I'm very busy.
Street Merchant: Ten dollars.
HARM Agent: No! I wouldn't want the dreadful thing even if it were free!
Street Merchant: Free? You want my children to starve?
HARM Agent: If they're hungry, I suggest you feed them the monkey.
Street Merchant: This is a valuable monkey! My wife would kill me if she knew I was offering it to you so cheap.
HARM Agent: You don't seem to understand, I DON'T WANT A MONKEY!
Street Merchant: Infidel.

I'd wanna be in the Covenant before they discovered the Humans. Seemed like they had a pretty good thing going for them. Dunno what race I would be though. Probably an Elite. They had the good life back then.
I'd work as a freelance Batman villain henchman. I'd probably want to avoid guys like The Joker or Mr. Zsasz, though. Maybe I'd work for Black Mask. He's a pretty nice guy and he seems to appreciate a helping hand.
