Incompetent: Coming Up Short In A World Of Achievement

Veteran journalist/author reveals what it's like to fall way short in a world of achieversSome of us can do practically everything. Even more do a few things well, and qualify as passable in the others. Plenty of folks perform adequately at several endeavors, while failing to score on the remainder of life's activities.Then, there are the rest of us - a group that gets scant attention from the achievers of the world. When the Creator passed out skills and talents, we proven incompetents must have been looking the other way, likely gazing into space.Nonsense, helpful friends often insist. Everybody has some kind of ability: something they do well.Sorry, but no. Some of us simply don't know how to do anything with a degree of skill beyond the minimal. No one will ever say of us: "Remember him? He was really good at so-and-so." All they'll be able to say is: "Remember him? No, me neither. What did he do, anyway?"Whether you're one of us, or you doubt that utterly inept humans exist, Incompetent has been written to describe what it's like to live far behind the pack. Not just to fail at tasks, but, often as not, to do so spectacularly. Author/journalist James M. Flammang surveys 34 distinct ways to demonstrate incompetence, from sports and work, through business and romance, to small talk and having fun.
