Worst Person for the JobIn 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 was having some decorating doneI'd gone for plain wallpaper painted over with emulsion to try and hide the roughness of the walls. Whilst happy with the standard of the work, there was still a degree of visible unevenness and I suggested that maybe applying some textured paint with a sponge might further hide the problem.
The owner of the decorating company, who I believe was from Newcastle, agreed, adding that he occasionally employed a couple of guys on a self employed basis for just this type of work, saying, "I'll get wor stipplers in for the job."
