I CAN'T DO ANYTHING RIGHT, WHAT IS THIS?

This is a ploy so that you don't have to do anything at all because if you can't do it right it releases you from responsibility. My ex-husband used this tool continuously.

So is it that YOU REALLY CAN'T DO ANYTHING RIGHT, OR IS IT THAT YOU JUST DON'T WANT TO DO ANYTHING AT ALL? So really, which is it?

Update:

I have a responsibility to be considerate and nothing ever makes me happy? What a bunch of bull, more excuses. It isn't me that this person says this about either, it's my son. So what is this person saying that she can't do anything to please my son, if that is the case why not just leave? Wrong answer. I worked with people for 27 years. There is more than one way to skin a cat. A job may not get done the way I would do it but as long as it gets done and it's right, I DON'T CARE HOW IT WAS DONE. Be like NIKE, JUST DO IT AND STOP ALL THE WHINING.

Be considerate to lazy people that make excuses? REALLY?

    For most people, "you can't do ANYTHING right" is more of a control tactic. It breeds low self esteem in the other, until they finally give up trying to please someone who can't be pleased . And why would you even want to try, because regardless of how you do something you're going to get yelled at because the other way would've been right.
