          Generally seen as lacklusters who at the same time want efficiency and who are usually associated with big things like the civil service and wads of paperwork. Though generally such types dont exist anymore, the stereotypical [bureaucrats] favourite colour is brown of some variety and enjoys sucking the life out of stuff by involving lots of forms and not doing a lot themselves by delegating responsibilities yet retaining their power. [Bureaucracy] is thus a negative thing and to be avoided at all costs. You must remember not all bureaucrats are bad, look at Sam [Lowry] in Brazil. He just tried to correct someone elses mistake and so ended up...[well id] better not spoil it if you havent seen the film but its bad. Thus disproving the point if all the good ones...having something bad happen. Just avoid bureacrats and all those kids whom aspire to be ones.
