Bob is shown to be short-tempered and somewhat cynical. He pressures his son, Willy to be an "A+" student who has to study all the time and also has to get into the top-tier college, Ivy League School, get a degree, become rich and retire at 65. Not only that but he is also very rude to Rat, even though Rat hates Bob, most of time, Rat isn't even rude to Bob and is really only a little annoying. But besides this, Bob is sometimes nice, caring and can get reasonably upset.
