* Linith from ''Anime/MagicalGirlLyricalNanoha''. She has ''very'' little respect for her creator Precia, and is not above talking back or using sarcasm even during her FamousLastWords ("my never kind master, Precia"). Has a better relationship with Fate, but is not above teasing her a little over her being sleepy in her LotusEaterMachine dream.

* α (Alpha) of ''Franchise/LapisReLights'' is the RobotMaid of the noble half-succubus Emilia. In spite of her being so fond of her mistress she enrolled in the same prestigious school as her to continue serving her, she is constantly being brutally honest and snarky with her. This is allegedly due to a flaw in her "Linguistics Systems".

The Servile Snarker is a combination of a DeadpanSnarker and TheJeeves (although the original Jeeves, as the above quote shows, can be pretty snarky). Thus, any butler, maid, slave, servant, whatever, who is heavily sarcastic to their master and/or their master's guests and yet still manages to keep their job is this trope. They are often a master of the StealthInsult.
See SassySecretary for another variation of this character. Also see SarcasticDevotee, NoHeroToHisValet, HonestAdvisor, TheJester, HaughtyHelp and FrenchMaid.

* In ''VisualNovel/MysticMessenger,'' Jaehee Kang is the BeleagueredAssistant to Jumin Han, who is in line to become the CEO of his father's mega-corporation. Jumin relies on and trusts Jaehee immensely, and not just because she's amazing at her job and taking care of whatever he asks of her (including watching his cat while he's away) but because he values the fact that she's willing to say what she thinks of him (although she's always relatively polite about it). He doesn't mind when she says that his enthusiasm for his business ventures related to his cat can be outlandish, or that he has a hard time relating to others--he's been surrounded by [[YesMan people who have never disagreed with or challenged him]] his whole life, and because of it, he greatly appreciates those who are honest with him.
