/Sounds like "OH" (as in "oh") + "yah" (as in "yard") + "poh" (as in "port") + "DREE" (as in "dreary") + "dah" (as in "dart")/
A complicated mess where multiple problems are tangled together with no quick solution. In Mexico, Guatemala, and Honduras the image of a rotten stew is applied to scandals, debt spirals, or workplace conflicts nobody wants to touch.
“That company is a rotten mess of debts and lawsuits that nobody wants anything to do with.”
“He got tangled up in a nightmare situation with that business partner and it took him years to get out.”

Apitutado
In Chile, someone who got their job or an opportunity through connections rather than actual merit. The apitutado walked in through the back door while everyone else waited in line, and the whole office knows it. A very loaded term in a country where who you know often matters more than what you know.
