Question of the Week suggestionsEach week we ask a question. The idea is to generate material that's:
* interesting to read, i.e. we won't get bored of reading the answers after about 10 of them
* not been asked on this site before
* fun to answer
What would you like to ask? (We've left this question open - so feel free to drop in ideas anytime.)

In too deepWhen I was a student I had a (very) breif stint as a delivery driver for a company that sold bathtubs. Very breif indeed. Why? Because I can't drive. Failed to mention that in the interview and the bloke who interviewed me never asked. I was in too deep. Ended up running off after about an hour of putting off taking the van out.
Tell us about the occasions you've been in too deep.

Thanks SpankyYou've just reminded me of one ignominious morning spent pretending to be a well-'ard joiner when I was in fact an effete cabinetmaker.
We parted on good terms though:
"This isn't working is it?" said the gaffer.
"No. Not really. Shall I just go home?"
"Yes. I think that would be best."
"OK. Thanks anyway." [skulks off, relieved]
