He's right, though - unless there are real legal repercussions or it's an impossible task, just say "yes". Worst case scenario, you'll do a bad job of it and whoever requested your service won't do it anymore.

Right. This is what I see in the quote. No one, in my entire life, has ever simply offered me an amazing opportunity. I’ve had to apply, interview, fight for that opportunity.

Who is getting opportunities handed to them they’re not qualified for? What world does this guy live in?
