See below Explanation: The sentence translates as She offloads a difficult case on to me every day. The word refourguer is not standard French. However it is still heard and read. |

unload, flog off, palm off...to name but a few Explanation: refourguer : like fourgon, a small lorry or van for delivering loads. "She palms me off with one sticky file every day". Play around with it to get the tone you need for your specific context. (Current office jargon in France) Collins & Robert |
