EN: chief, boss
The one in charge. Your boss sa office, the barangay captain, or the chief of police you see in action movies. Basically, the person you don't want to get on the wrong side of, unless you want your life to be a teleserye drama.
From Spanish 'jefe'.
Commonly used for police chiefs, but can be used colloquially for any boss or person in charge.
