(British)

Members of middle management or office workers, especially those considered unimaginative and undynamic.

This dismissive epithet was heard in the office slang of the 1990s, typically used by senior executives of their subor- dinates.

'If you want to get anything done, the simplest thing is just avoid the blobocracy and push it upstairs as fast and hard as you can.'

(Recorded, advertising sales executive, London, 1995).
