معنی
Doing a job very badly.
زمینه فرهنگی
In Turkish offices, this phrase is often used behind someone's back to criticize their lack of competence. It is a common part of 'office gossip' (ofis dedikodusu). Parents often use this when children try to help with chores but end up making more work for the parents. It's used with a mix of frustration and affection. Sports commentators in Turkey are very fond of this idiom. When a player makes a 'clumsy' error, it is almost guaranteed to be used in the post-match analysis. Admitting you 'yüzüne gözüne bulaştırdın' is seen as a way to show humility and take responsibility for a mistake, which can sometimes soften the anger of others.

Not for Tragedies
Never use this for serious accidents or deaths; it sounds mocking.
