This is a question Worst Person for the Job

In a week where it emerges that the new Health Secretary is a fan of the hocus-pocus that is homeopathy, tell us about people who are spectacularly out of their depth in a job. Have you ever found yourself wallowing in your own incompetence? Tell us. (Note: "Name of football manager/politician - nuff said" does not constitute an answer)

I thought the BBC Olympic sailing commentators were far worse
Everyone else, in every sport, at least made an attempt to explain what was going on if it wasn't obvious (like, say, in the 100m sprint final) to someone watching the sport for the first time. Even if they fucked it up, they made the attempt, even Herbore and Topography.

Sailing coverage, however, showed pictures of twenty or so identical boats, all going in apparently different directions, while the commentary team wittered on like a cross between elderly colonels describing their war records and mechanical engineers discussing which particulr widget was the best for an unspecified job.

Completely impenetrable to the lay observer. i.e. me.
