Snooping for dollars.

I never learned real English. So what in the world is a jobsworth?

Edit:
Oh yeah, it's used in the last paragraph.

From the UK slang dictionary:

jobsworth Noun. A person who is very pedantic at work and strictly adheres to the rules; so called because of their oft used exclamation, "I can't let you do that, it's more than my job's worth." Derog.
