Out of my depthAs a schoolkid, I signed up for a public speaking contest purely as a ruse to meet girls. It haunts me still: in front of 300 people, I started to speak, dried up, stood there for what felt like half an hour staring at the floor and then slowly walked back to my seat. Oh, and the girl I liked laughed.
Have you ever been utterly, completely, devastatingly out of your depth?

Wellwith me being a poor student I decided I needed a job. I decided that the best job I could possibly get for my inexperienced self would be a supermarket shelf-stacker. I applied and managed to get a phone interview. After making it past the initial questions about myself with little trouble, the interviewer asked me the incredibly difficult question of 'why do you want to work at the Co-op?' Cue my eloquent reply of 'Er...um...well i like shops.' Strangely its been six months and they still havent phoned me back. Oh well.
