I’d call that character humor, where the character of the boss is funny because of his exaggerated stupidity. It wouldn’t be funny if the punchline was just the boss getting hit in the face by a pie (well, beyond the inherent humor of pie-to-face situations). Besides, most of the co-workers say idiotic things too!
