above my pay grade

超出我的职权范围 / 我管不了

这个短语口语中常用,表示某个决定或任务的难度、复杂程度,或其重要性超出了自己职位的职责范围或能力。Jake 觉得自己只是个警探,处理副总局长儿子的事超出了他级别能管的范围。

I even put an "About the Author" section on the back.
I did everything you asked me to do, but this is above my pay grade. You gotta make the call.
You're the arresting officer. It's your call.
