Feeling like being in such a situation this phrase could be a good one for today:
“to bite off more than one can chew”
sich zu viel zumuten/mehr in Angriff nehmen, als man bewältigen kann
Have a nice Friday!

Good morning!
Here is another one for all of us who have to struggle with their bosses:
"You can't teach an old dog new tricks."
(Was Hänschen nicht lernt, lernt Hans nimmermehr.)
Have a great Monday!

Nice phrases, but I am sure, I will not remember them when necessary.

Sayings are very interesting in different languages.
For example:
We can't compare 'Apples and pears'.
in the US they can't compare 'Apples and oranges'.

Wow, eight words...

Kiesel, go ahead and train your English with us!
The very special relationship refers to the prices for cheese in England ... exorbitant!

Hard to believe, isn't it.
So many sheep on the island - but there isn't any sheep-cheese.

My English is a bit rusty. I comprehend your conversation only due to LEO.

And no cheap cheese either! (I HAD to play on those words, sorry!)
