A derogatory term for graphic designers, motion graphic artists, 3D artists and other computer-related fields related to the visual arts industry. Used by producers and HR recruiters as term of condescension to those artists whose skills, they do not ultimately understand.
Like the racist lawn jockeys of golf clubs and the racist term camel jockeys, the term implies a being of lower status and the master-slave relation between the owner and owned.
Actual 3D artists and graphic designers would never refer to themselves as pixel jockeys, preferring to use job titles for the fields which they respectfully have mastered.

After being out on the booze, James was unable to hold on and prevent the inevitable Jockey Choccy that followed.

A man (or young man) whose behavior is driven by the uncontrollable urge to prove that he's "more of a man" than the next guy. Always has to be first in line, always has to be the fastest, always has to drink the most, has to control the room, tailgates and weaves dangerously in and out of traffic to pass people, etc. Basically a Type A personality jacked up to extremes.
That testosterone jockey tailgated me in heavy rush hour traffic for 5 miles, then took a dive across 3 lanes to weave around everyone and almost clipped 2 cars in the process.

A city dweller you might see selling street food from a cart or a van. Usually there will be hundreds of items to choose from, but the jockey will be totally confused if you ask for anything other than a “gyro”.
