office putter

it's good to be the office putter if you can get to that level, he's the guy that only comes out of the bag, that steps in once the project is 99% complete and the work is all done ... so he can step in for the easy tap in and be seen as the one to bring it home, finish the deal, get all the praise and credit

Jackson: Once again Miller plays the office putter and gets all the recognition.
Murphy: Yeah, this will probably get him his 3rd promotion in 2 years.
