Do bear in mind that if you are out of your depth

It's partly your employer's responsibility as well as yours.

Just like it's partly my fault that I let f**king Dave go down a blind alley for a pissing arse arse arse fortnight.

The guy that interviewed and hired him is away, he might well have said, no, don't give that to Dave, it's too much for him.
