OP It's me, Jess! First of all, I would like to thank ALL of you for the abundance of information and help. I am practically astounded by the replies! Second of all, (just a side note) I'm a SHE, not a HE! Thirdly, I will only be able to give the correct answer next week because that is when I will be able to get it and I honestly don't know the answer! I'm trying to find it too.
I've practically narrowed it down to :
Automaton - although it doesn't fit in the sentence, it makes a bit of sense to the definition I posted
Jobsworth - even though it is a slang, it COULD be it
Sycophant/toadeater - but it might be taken off the list because it states that a sycophant/toadeater(toady) is "someone who does things for personal gain, flattery" and the definition didn't state that
I promise to give you the answers as soon as I get it, just remember that I can't be on the internet everyday.
Jess
p.s Oh, before I forget, what is your pick? I'll take the majority, then, unless someone comes up with an even better word!
