If it wasn’t for those “jack-of-all-trades” working for your company, you would be a “master” of nothing!! Many “bosses” seem to forget that nowadays!!!
The Chief better hope he doesn’t get caught and accused of being a master of insider trading. That could thin out the number of bags of bucks usually seen next to his desk.
He needs to couch his reply in office-speak. “Well chief, my Outlook is to Excel, and, if one’s speech has Power, point out I would come to the Office 365 days a year, if it were possible.” To which the chief would reply, “Word”.
i used to say, like Brutus, that I was a Jack of all trades, but a master of none. But, someone corrected me saying I was Jack of all trades and master of all. I actually see myself as a tinkerer at multiple things, but not an expert at much of anything. I’m still working on it.
My guess is Veeblefester is a second or third generation owner. He has all the arrogance and charm of a member of the Lucky Sperm Club. Attended private schools. Got a Mercedes convertible for his 16th birthday. Everything handed to him.

No wander your the born loser. You need to take just one trade and get good at it.

What about jack-of-all-trades, and master of a few? I think that applies to a good number of us.

The boss’s original question was a valid one, cause I think they’re both still to figure out if he has any skills.

Veeblefester could have roasted Brutus a lot worse. He got off easy. That could have been a set up and knock down.
