What is script monkey?

A term used when describing the employees of an outsourced initiative. Usually found in a level 1 IT service environment or with a call center, they are comprised of foreign representatives who have taken English as a second language. They can not process requests without sticking 100% to a script as they can not think on their own.

I called to book a flight on Delta and the Script Monkey couldn't answer my question since it wasn't something normally asked.

I called Dell for help with my laptop return. I explained to the rep I already completed all troubleshooting and the script monkey said we need to complete all their steps of they will not help me.

Script monkey - what is it?

A computer user who uses low level languages like HTML and Javascript almost exclusively, and fears things like .NET, object oriented programming, and working with a team. Often in web design, or their mom's basement. Related to script kiddies, but usually less mischievious.

Now that I showed Jimmy the javascript alert command, he thinks he's a fucking script monkey.

That script monkey forwarded me to a menu and I ended up back with him. He then proceeded to follow the same script and tried to forward me again.
