Chapita
In Peru and Bolivia, someone who acts with authority they do not actually have. A chapita plays the role of someone in charge when they are clearly not, throwing their imaginary weight around and blocking things they have no real power over. The word refers to a badge or insignia, suggesting the authority is purely decorative.
