Which brings me to the following saying.
Jack of all trades, master of none.
Another problem is there is NO ACCEPTED DEFINITION of Full-Stack because the stack changes from company to company. At this point I'm going to write this is some company wishing for that uber-programmer that will lead them out of the darkness.

It means someone who can do everything, frontend, backend, server administration, database administration, security, graphics design, everything.
And don't expect to get away with being good at one thing on their bucket list and merely decent at the rest, you're expected to be a world expert at everything while working for peanuts.
The more delusional the hiring (or IT) manager, the longer the bucket list of skills, tools, and libraries you're required to have mastered, and the more likely they will be to fire you for incompetence the moment it shows you're less than perfect in any one aspect of the job.
