I realized quickly that it translates to:"I haven't got my shit together yet" but if you said that in a meeting you would be quickly called on it, but for some reason if you just said "I just need to get my ducks in a row" instead, everyone will just nod and say "Of course.." and there will be no repurcussions at all.Alanhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/13171137986406166389noreply@blogger.com
