Argh! Have people never heard of responsibility?
I have a group presentation due tomorrow for DES 15. My group consists of two former freshmen and a junior transfer/international student. My part was to design the accompanying pamphlet, which was kind of difficult when I don't have all the text I need. One of the freshmen girls was slotted for the powerpoint--the rest of us sent her all our research.
On friday, she warned us that she would be out of commission for the weekend due to moving issues. That was fine, it being Labor Day weekend and all; I assumed she would work on it Monday. I call her Monday for the text (bibliography and her personal blurb) and she said she would e-mail it to me that night.
It's currently Tuesday afternoon and I haven't her blurb and when I called her about the powerpoint, the one she told me she had started Friday, she told me all her had were pictures and the title. Fine, she had many problems with moving to the point that she was currently staying in a hotel, but that does not mean she could shirk her part of the project. How long would it have taken her to have called me to let me know that she wouldn't be able to carry out her part?
The presentation is tomorrow and I don't want us to read off the powerpoint like the previous two groups. I also don't want us to go in there without the information memorized. On top of the group project, I have four smaller ones for the same class (20 pts each as opposed to the 100 point group one) and a report and exercise for my photo class all due Friday.
Argh! People!
To add to this furor, my phone's dying. I had charged it fully last night, made about a half hour's worth of calls dealing with the project problem, and now it has to be charged again. My mother had this phone since 2004 before passing it on to me, so it's pretty worn. The back also has become loose enough to have a tendency to pop off if I'm not careful.
Thank all I'll be going home at the end of this summer session. I need it.
