[ˈdɔŋki ɪmˈplɔɪi]

An individual who consistently handles the most mundane, repetitive, and labor-intensive tasks within a workplace. Often overlooked and underappreciated, a donkey employee performs the essential, albeit unglamorous, duties that keep operations running smoothly. These tasks, which are usually unskilled and require significant effort, are vital to the overall success of the organization but seldom receive recognition or reward.
