ha i had a group paper earlier this term, met the two ppl at the library one day, we figured we'd get one half of it done, do the rest by ourselves and email them to one person to put it all together
so we show up there and i can tell both of them assume i'm gonna be the useless person in every group project, i was chillin on my laptop writing a bit
so we all get shit divided up and start working, after about 10 minutes i run to get some coffee, stop on the way back to talk to a friend
almost 45 minutes gone by and one of them asks how i'm coming
i had a page and a half
bitchin.
so then i'm looking over one of the other ppl's parts and corrected the shit out of it, some people these days just don't know grammar :/

cor version: had a group project, ppl thought i was gonna be lazy and useless, ended up showing them up; pwnt

i HATE group work. i am capable of doing silly assignments by myself. i'd raer suffer doing it by myself than aving to rely on others. right now, i'm in a group project and luckily i like the people in my group.

group work does suck, especially if you are stuck with a bunch of idiots. when I was in university I was stuck with a bunch of nOObs in this editing course! Fuk I was so mad, but we got and A+ because I am a kick ass editor!

FAO Pete: I'm getting pwnd by group work right now.

Myself and two others are working on this Israel policy paper, one of them has been spot on and totally on time with his work - Right now I'm still waiting on the other to get me his work so that I can spend my entire night synthesizing it all into one coherent paper and presentation.

I can't even start until this kid gets me his shit, and it HAS to be done today

lol - Internet friend threats always work!

But seriously, this kid is also my pot hook up - So I've cut him significant slack in the name of "favors." At this point though, he knows he's gotta get his shit done - I was told I'd have his work by 5, we'll see...

i have a group presentation due tomorrow. i HATE group work. i HATE it. there was only one other group member who was really repsonsible. some bitch in my group tried to say that i never called her to meet up for a group meeting. i SHOWED her the dialed calls on my phone...BOTH numbers she gave me and then she said i called the wrong number. um...NO I DIDN'T! i heard her voice greeting. she is so stupid.

now we hve to complete a 20 page paper due by the 18th. i'd rather have done the project myself and do all 20 pages myself. i HATE relying on other people with a passion.

i had to present law cases in front of the class last friday ....im unfortunately working with a guy (wasnt my choice) he didnt do anything .....it was first planned we would be half /half .....he called me saying he was so depressed and so down and asked me to do his part ....i couldnt refuse because if the work wasnt done by any of us .....the grade would have suffered

the presentation has been delayed to this comming friday and i really hope he will have done his work (i ended up doing the whole thing anyway ) but still.....
especially when people told me the day he called me so depressed he kinda hung out the whole day at the caf� of the uni ......

i love being taken for a moron

but blah sooner or later i'll pwn him !

i cant fucking stand this guy who always shows off and behave like "Mr cool" player look ....always hanging out with a lot of girls .....he is just an ass

I HATE DOING SCHOOL WORK WITH PEOPLE

I feel for ya man. I got my paper back today. 70/100. The prof said that the idea's and content was good, but the report itself came off as too much of a "rough draft". I didn't break down some of my idea's clearly enough, and the final part (Implementation, Evaluation & Control) was not detailed enough. I don't blame him, I was up until 5am writing the paper, then woke up at 10am to finish writing it. I didn't have any time whatsoever to go back over it and edit it. I usually do all that the night before, but this time I had to write the report from scratch practically.

Now I have another group report to do, but I really lucked out this time. It's a 2 person project, and the guy I'm with is a bigger pothead than me, and just as creative when it comes to doing a marketing related shit. I wish I knew people like him at the beginning of college, and not in my final year.

Yeah, I just got the final copies of everything from the other two guys, and wouldn't you know it - The citations are all royally fucked.

Fucking Chicago Style - I'm taught MLA and APA my whole god damn life (HS and college) and for two papers this semester I have to use fucking Chicago style.

Fuck fuck fuck.

In senior year, we had this physics project about barcode scanners (???). It was a complete mess, we all fucked around on the computers, harassed the juniors in our class and STILL passed.

Fucking LOL, I have never had a bad group project in my life. The last group project I had was with my friends, so it was really fun. I completely clowned the teacher every time he reviewed our group work (I'm a sarcastic smart-ass), and behind his back. Good times.

get used it. chances are, you'll be asked to work with a group when you get a job too.

i had dead weight when i did my senior project in college. 2 of us picked up the slack because our third person was too slow to work at our pace. we got a good grade in the end and the teacher knew who did the work.

i work in teams all the time in my job. sometimes you have to suck it up because you have someone stupid or lazy on your team, but they will always be there (you can't just fire someone because they aren't as smart as you). you have to do your best to get the team's goals acheived, while making sure the people evaluating you (and determining your raise) know who did the most valuable work. it worked for me.

did our group project today, got there early beore hand and the bitch i was talking about re-did my power point and some of the order was messed up. i told her i wish i sent her the power point earlier so iidn't have to do the power point all for nothing and she said "well yeah, if you had called me..." still on at whole not calling her bullshit. i hate people who pll the blame game when SHE could have called me if i SUPPOSEDLY did not call her. she keeps pulling an attitude and i'm gonna have to cuss her out. i came very close to yelling at her in front of the class, but i decided to stay cool. she is so fuckin rude and i hate rude people. i still have to work with her dumb ass on the 20 page paper.
