Group work

I kind of really hate group work.
Because the type of people that you can get stuck with always varies.
Like you could have a bunch of overachievers that all work together nicely.
Or a bunch of slackers and so now you have to do all the work.
Or someone that just takes over the entire thing for no real reason other than they are a control freak.

So anyways,
I was blessed into a group project with a mix of members.
One was wonderful and hard working and flexible with what we needed to get done. Always there, always on time, dependable as hell.
The other was the exact opposite.
And that never sits well with me.

Laziness when other people's grades are involved.
Not okay to slack off.

So anyways, the non-slacker and I became friends.
Planned and shot the entire project.
Edited the thing and got to know each other.

The other guy,
Hardly there.
Hard to get ahold off.
Did barely any.
And then was critical of our work.

Like maybe if you showed up I wouldnt be cranky.

Thats just me.

Moral of the story.
Be kind and work together.
You dont have to be the person that takes over the project.
Just be good at communicating and trusting your team until proven otherwise.
Then make sure you have a good back up plan.
