    In reference to group projects, do you come across that one member that just acts as dead weight to the group?

    Theory: Regardless of if your group consists of 3 4 5 6 or more people. There will always be that one person, usually a male that contributes almost nothing to the group project?

    This person usually has little to NO direct as well and usually needs to be instructed of what to do.


    well?

    this theory still works in the real world - there is always one guy that can screw up your projects at work ....

    example: 2 months preparing new catalog; it has wrong phone number printed on it *slaps head*

    I always remembered everything I would say, just bc it is easy for me. I also am great at talking non stop on anything I know about.

    I know the feeling. Senior project was the worst occurrence.
