Jack of all trades, master of none.

Pour décrire quelqu'un capable de faire plusieurs boulots mais aucun correctement.

Ho, la traduction que j'en ai eu c'était plus l'émigration que ça. Capable de faire tout correctement, mais 'excelle dans rien

Heu t'es sûr ? "Master of none" je ne l'ai jamais lu/entendu dans le sens de "pas correctement" mais souvent dans le sens de "deuxième plutôt que premier".

J'ai appris qu'en Suisse ton employeur te remet à la fin de ton contrat ou tous les 5 ans si tu restes longtemps une lettre de recommendation, expliquant tes missions et jugeant tes qualités. C'est sympa quand tu es bon, mais si tu es mauvais tu traines ce papier comme un boulet partout vu que ton employeur suivant peut te le demander !

Et en général, il le demande.

The Banqiao Reservoir Dam is a dam on the River Ru in Zhumadian City, Henan province, China. Its failure in 1975 caused more casualties than any other dam failure in history at an estimated 171,000 deaths and 11 million displaced.[1] The dam was subsequently rebuilt.

[..]

Officially, the dam failure was a natural as opposed to man-made disaster, with government sources placing an emphasis on the amount of rainfall as opposed to poor engineering and construction. The People's Daily has maintained that the dam was designed to survive a once-in-1000-years flood (300 mm of rainfall per day) but a once-in-2000-years flood occurred in August 1975, following the collision of Typhoon Nina and a cold front. The typhoon was blocked for two days before its direction ultimately changed from northeastward to westward.[3] As a result of this near stationary thunderstorm system, more than a year's worth of rain fell within 24 hours (new records were set, at 189.5 mm (7.46 inches) rainfall per hour and 1060 mm (41.73 inches) per day, exceeding the average annual precipitation of about 800 mm (31.5 inches)),[4] which weather forecasts failed to predict.[4]China Central Television reported that the typhoon disappeared from radar as it degraded.[5] According to Xinhua,[6] the forecast was for rainfall of 100 mm by the Beijing-based Central Meteorological Observatory.

Communication with the dam was largely lost due to wire failures. On August 6, a request to open the dam was rejected because of the existing flooding in downstream areas. On August 7 the request was accepted, but the telegrams failed to reach the dam.[7] The sluice gates were not able to handle the overflow of water partially due to sedimentation blockage.[8] On August 7 at 21:30, the People's Liberation Army Unit 34450 (by name the 2nd Artillery Division in residence at Queshan county), which was deployed on the Banqiao Dam, sent the first dam failure warning via telegraph. On August 8, at 1:00, water at the Banqiao crested at the 117.94 m level above sea level, or 0.3 meter higher than the wave protection wall on the dam, and it failed. The same storm caused the failure of 62 dams in total.

[..]

According to the Hydrology Department of Henan Province, approximately 26,000 people died at the province[14] from flooding and another 145,000 died during subsequent epidemics and famine. In addition, about 5,960,000 buildings collapsed, and 11 million residents were affected. Unofficial estimates of the number of people killed by the disaster have run as high as 230,000 people.[15] The death toll of this disaster was declassified in 2005.[4]
