The Thoracic employer, who always wants things done instantly, is maddened by the slow, unadaptable Osseous employee.

And not only was he ill-informed—that was true of Mr. Lloyd George also—but his mind was slow and unadaptable.

But he had proved himself incompetent, unadaptable, a stick, a pedantic incapable.

I am too stiffened by work, unskilled in travel, too unadaptable to begin again elsewhere.
