When you shit the bed and fall back asleep leaving the shit to harden and form a sort of shell on your back and ass.

noun
When you're awarded a fancy new title and a fresh pile of responsibilities, but your paycheck doesn’t move an inch. Like a ninja, this promotion slips in silently, sounds impressive, might even look impactful—but remains completely undetectable in your bank account.
Origin:
Rumored to have started among government employees, where budget freezes were common but the need for “recognition” was high. Managers, unable to offer raises, began handing out sleek new titles like “Senior Specialist” or “Lead Coordinator” as stealthy morale boosters. The term “ninja promotion” was coined after someone joked that their new role was like a ninja—deadly serious, highly skilled, and totally invisible on payday.
Often includes:
A new title
More meetings
Higher expectations
No money
A LinkedIn update and a slice of cake

A "loft ninja" is a term used to describe an individual who engages in deceptive, dishonest, and unethical behavior, often involving lying, stealing, and cheating. Such a person should be regarded with skepticism and caution, as they are known to betray trust and exploit others for personal gain.
Be cautious when dealing with Mark; he's known as a "loft ninja" around here. He has a history of lying, stealing, and cheating to get ahead, so it's best not to trust him with important matters.
