Get the Overdescriber mug.A person who exemplifies the finer qualities of Milton Waddams from Office Space, including distracted thinking, disheveled appearance, complete lack of self confidence, inappropriate mumbling or talking to oneself, and an obsessive compulsion to only focus on one item (such as a red stapler or an outgoing wire process) regardless of what else is going on around him/her. Given a small amount of power or control, this person tends to go completely Napoleonic, and is typically just dumb enough to be dangerous.
This new guy Paul is a complete Waddamite. First he shows up wearing a tie that ends four inches above the belt; then he begins really distracting cavitations in his chair, all while mumbling to himself and awkwardly typing on his laptop as we’re trying to explain a very simple process that he completely misunderstands no matter how simple we make it. I can’t believe that anyone would put this guy in charge of a hamburger, never mind an examination.
