its actually "Jack of all trades, master of nothing" which i think was penned from an australian a long time ago. It means, that you can be skilled in a lot of job related stuff, but you have nothing to show for your working life.

That's "Jack of all trades, master of none".
It means you know a little about a bunch of stuff, but aren't really good at any of them.
I know because I am one!

Let me explain something to all rational thinking Americans. Please. Facts will never change the mind of a liberal. History will never change the mind of a liberal. All the scientist in the world could come together in a nationally televised news conference and say global warming/climate change is not,and I repeat,not happening, and the The big O would say they are lying and that would be all the cred these libs would need. More and more reputable scientists are backing off of the climate change junk science. Makes no difference to these libs. They are bound by some unknown entity to destroy our country. Again I say no amount of information to the contrary will ever change their mind. It's an exercise in futility trying. So give up. I have. Stupidity is what it is. Don't let these know it all snobs give you an ulcer. They are a doomed breed.

"Jack of all trades, master of nothing" means you are capable of doing many things, but do not excel at anything.

That one is skilled in many fields or areas, have many talents, but do not identify with one specifically.. this person is very useful but do not take to mastering one specific talent or trade.
