Fingle berry
Fingle Berry (noun): A term used to describe a woman who, through deceptive actions or manipulation, causes others to lose their jobs in order to gain personal rewards, such as a trivial treat (e.g., a cookie). The term also refers to someone who has endured a difficult or burdensome life, symbolized by the metaphor of carrying a "mattress" on her back. The term may also imply a certain exaggerated or comedic physicality in her actions, such as the "clapping" of her body when receiving her reward.

"Crystal, always scheming behind the scenes, was the perfect example of a fingle berry, twisting the truth to get others blamed and fired, all while eagerly anticipating the small reward, a cookie, that would make her day—her actions as loud and exaggerated as the clap of her steps."
