The worker that has everyone fooled, the fraud of the workstaff, appearing to be very hard worker when in fact doesn't really do anything
Dana : Tom was working so late last night, he send me a work email at 11:30pm.
Murphy: Dana, you're so naive, Tom's the office placebo ... he sent that from that club while dancing with the ladies.

the sand wedge guy, if used correctly, only comes into play when someone else has messed something up, and the sad part is that the someone doesn't necessarily have to outrank the sandwedge, it could be someone inferior in the office heirarchy and still the sandwedge must come in and fix the shit cause he's the only one that can. The thing about the sand wedge is, he's ok with it, he knows his role and accepts it, becasue at some point earlier in his career he was given the big job, the lead position ... and he f'd it up.
Jackson: Dude, I can't believe how bad that went in there, how the hell are we going to recover.
Murphy: Sounds like a job for Peter.
Jackson: Peter, he had nothing to do with this mess?
Murphy: That's ok, he's the office sand wedge.

this is the guy that only makes the call, the play, the decision when the answer is so near, so close, so obvious ... you can practically see the answer, writings on the wall.
Jackson: Really, are you sure you want to go with it now that even the mail boy can make the decision, you're such the office pitching wedge.
Murphy : Right on brother, right on.

like any great shaman, the office shaman is the guy with the vision ...but that's all he has to offer..the vision. the end result of what he wants and so desires. 75% of the time, his vision is pure genious, the other 25% of the time it's a wreck, but for that batting avg, everyone respects him. The problem with the shaman, like I said is they offer no path, no solution on how to achieve their vision which creates angst among his followers. The shaman is the one who coined the office phrase "figure it out", from which the other office phrase "WTF" orginated from. The office placebo's ultimate goal is to become a shaman, but it will never happen, cause like I said the office placebo is a complete fraud, does nothing and certainly could not come up with a vision.
Jackson: Wow, that was unbelievable ... I'm so charged up and excited as well as completely dumbfounded at the same time.
Murphy: I know, everytime I listen to Stefan, the office shaman, I feel the same way. The man is genius, but how the hell are we going to reduce expenses by 40% next month without doing away with our bagel friday's that everyone lives for.
