Definitions tagged sin-oficio in the street dictionary.

Ocioso

A meddling loafer or freeloader who is not just idle but actively keeps others from working. This person shows up unannounced, talks your head off, and wastes everyone's time. They are usually broke and such a nuisance that people sometimes give them a little money just to get them to leave.

Anyone who thinks being a politician is a real job is an ocioso.

Cierrapueblo

Someone who is always the last person to go to bed in a town, usually because they are out drinking or lurking around. They stay up late hoping to peep on couples having sex so they can spread gossip about it later. (The name literally means town closer, implying they are the ones who shut the town down for the night.)

Look, there goes the cierrapueblo, walking around at midnight on a Monday like it is the middle of the day.
