  • Well that’s a more specific situation. Personally I try to get things done ahead of time in group projects. That just feels respectful to the others. I can agree that it’s a bit selfish to wait until the last minute when others can’t get their stuff done until I do.

    I just wanted to point out that procrastination shouldn’t be considered selfish. Different people have different working styles that work best for them. It’s a compromise to incorporate different working styles and the person who likes to do things right away and then relax should realize that there’s other styles and not everyone can operate the same way as them.


  • Woah woah woah… selfish behavior? What do you think you know about procrastinators?

    I love that I procrastinate. It helps me to think about the issue/task for a longer period of time and allows for freedom to complete other tasks or relax instead of constantly stressing about getting things done immediately. I used to complete jobs right away and was rewarded with ever increasing workloads until I broke down from the amount of stress put on me daily. Procrastination isn’t something done to spite or hurt another person/entity…you have me a deadline and I completed it before it was due. Shouldn’t matter how I went about completing it.

    Procrastinating has taught me how to work under intense pressure when it’s absolutely needed, and I can respond in the moment with confidence in my ability. It helps me to find time to be more connected with my coworkers without being overburdened with an ever-increasing workload. If I don’t take the time to be true to myself as a procrastinator, you will get less and less quality work out of me as my mental capacity becomes overloaded. It’s selfish to abuse those that want/need to take their time while still working under last minute pressure to get it done.

    Not everything is so black and white just because it doesn’t fit with your style of working.









  • This is something I’m currently studying for a class so this is really intriguing to me. For what it’s worth, that task is not as easy as it seems and you can tell from others here (myself included as I often get frustrated by things like forgetting to send in a rebate form) that it may be more common for people to NOT accomplish this kind of task.

    I just wanted to tell you that I hope you can feel some of that sense of accomplishment along with the relief. Whether it’s hard or easy is irrelevant…you did it and that’s what matters! Good work!

    That one whooshed right over your head eh? He’s saying that chickens families are not, in fact, the same as human families. They don’t form a family unit with bonds above those of other chickens. It’s mostly because they’re chickens…and not humans and it was a dumb comparison for PETA to try and make.

    Pointing out how chickens relate to other chickens does not mean it’s an endorsement for cruelty…you stretched big time for that one.
