A type of yes man/fall man often destined for a jail sentence, when a company has or is going to commit something they know is not in a legal and actually likely to result in criminal investigation they hire this kind of person "Just before" the act. This person is also allowed to acknowledge things but not fix them, because reaching product shipment is more important. Their job description can be basically summed up by getting a chimpanzee to learn how to say yes, and find and fling feces everywhere, when there given the command to clean this mess up.
