[<Hey TvGuy>]

How about "Milton" for this guy. At least I think that's the name of the guy in "Office Space."

We have a gal here we call "princess." This is because we get yelled at if we don;t get the salt, pepper and ketchup going thru the drive thru and we must always be sure to get a 2 shot and/or her on camera asking the question of our interview subject. The name princess came about because we peon photogs must serve her daily.

Richard Crainium, we call him Dick Head for short

 

[<need extra tape>]

Worked with a guy in Lubbock, TX (I think he's still there) we called "Ten Take Russell". Obviously he wasn't very good at the stand ups.

We call them Blowflies or Blowies

"Queen Bee" works well for these types as well, especially if they're higher up the chain.
