EN: clerk
The unsung hero of any office or government agency. They're the ones who know where your "for process" papers are actually located. Be nice to the clerk; they hold the keys to the bureaucratic kingdom and can either make your day smooth or send you to Window 4, then 7, then back to 2.
From English 'clerk'. A direct loanword.
The Filipinized spelling 'klerk' is also sometimes used but less common in formal writing. The generic term 'kawani' can also be used.
