Common synonyms include junior office chick, s--t-kicker, donkey worker, or gofer (go for this, go for that).

In the 40 years that followed, Kristine went on to experience the full gamut of working life – from joblessness, self-employment, mind-numbing office roles, toxic workplaces and out-of-control workloads.
