A person ( usually a male but not always ) whom appears to do whatever it takes to win favors from a person in a supervisory position. Used on
large contractor job sites with lots of new recruits.....many hoping to get the easiest tasks on a
long term job site. Gulk is the
sound made during the process of winning the favor.
Many of the
crew at the mill knew that Dwayne was the
big Gulker on "A" shift, because he never got the dirty jobs and always went to
lunch with the foremen.
