Couch Mango
a couch mango is a project team member, located in a tropical locale, who has indeterminate skill, role or authority, but who fits in seamlessly with the locals and can tell you all the gossip within a week or two.
often couch mangoes will become local legends, with individual acts of random altruism or demonstration of skill being retold in unlikely places, creating yet greater mystique and an aura of untapped capability.
whilst the couch mangoes themselves prefer a low profile and just quietly help the project along, trusted colleagues tend to talk up these unusual incidents to all and sundry.
