In my realm, I consider myself the "I.T. Jack Of All Trades, Master of None". It's what I do for a living. And to be perfectly honest, it frustrates me. I WANT to be a SME (Subject Matter Expert) of some system I'm working on instead of being spread across so much, but my current job doesn't allow it. I'm in the process of getting my bachelors in hopes it will help me get better standing at position openings at surrounding employers - bigger companies with room to grow & move up in. I want to get into a System Analyst role, and I know I'd be good at it - I've done plenty of it on a small scale in current/previous jobs...
All work aside, I tend to get frustrated on any subject I try to master. As soon as I get a bug up my ass to learn everything there is to know about something, I hear my mother in my head saying, "No matter how much you know about something, there will always be someone who knows more" and "For each expert there is always an equal and opposite expert"... and all the wind is knocked out of my sails and I drop into a mindless lull of irritation and frustrated agony.
