I have about a thousand things I'm not good at, but here are my top ten.

1. Getting up in the morning
2. Going to bed on time
3. doing radio, television or newspaper interviews
4. saying no, especially to panhandlers
5. saving money
6. dealing with telemarketers
7. figuring out how to use this damn computer
8. telling people I love them
9. deciding what to order in a restaurant
10. math, statistics, accounting, and taxes


Now it's your turn. It doesn't have to be 10 things...

I'm hopeless at the following:


1. doing dishes and cleaning house

2. crossword puzzles

3. kissing ass and/or keeping a job (that's why I play poker)

4. keeping in touch with people and networking

5. relationships

6. selling - I couldn't sell a pardon to a death row inmate

7. cooking - I burn water

8. bullying (except in poker)

9. knitting & sewing

Other than that I'm brilliant.

Me neither. Today I refused to respond to a woman in my office until she added a "please" to her request. True story.

I'm rubbish at:

1. Getting up in the morning - I am at least 15mins late for work every day... (don't worry, I make up the time at the end of the day)!

2. Maths. I failed my GCSE twice and on the third go scraped a "C" grade with the help of a private tutor

3. Running. I literally can't run - never have been able to.

4. Not taking things personally when they're clearly not meant personally

I'm terrible at math too. When I entered university, I was required to take the 'math for idiots that aren't up to university level' course, which I would have failed without tutors.

Same here, Linda. The only reason I kept re-sitting it was because you can't get into Uni without it here! What was all that trigonometry/algebra stuff about anyway? I've not used any of it since the exam ten years ago!

I titled it, "Stroke Your Own Ego". Which apparently sounds sexual, but I didn't mean it that way.

I like to think that every cloud has a silver lining.
Also the glass is 1/2 full and not 1/2 empty.

We are all good at something.

I'm NOT good at 'losing'..

I have a very competitive nature, therefore losing at anything is a 'no go area' for me.

Carole R...who is finding far too many things she aint good at.
