What Does Verschlimbessern Really Mean?

 Typically, you are standing in the middle of a German work group, having done some action....then one of the Germans with you utters the phrase 'verschlimbessern', and it doesn't matter what accompanies the word (verb, pronoun, noun, or adjective)....you really screwed this up (royally).  

It's best to confess your 'sins', and confide that you really didn't know much about this project.  

For that moment....things can't get much worse, unless the power goes out.
