A term that should never be used. It is used 99% of the time by D.C. Bureaucrats. Not just any bureaucrat, but sycophant whore climbers. Mostly used by no talent grade 14's in Headquarters with polished shoes who are clamoring to move up.

Non Climbing Bureaucrat- "Great, enjoy your dump, remember to wipe yourself."
