I hate working with other people. Not all the time, mind you, just particularly when it comes to group projects. Invariably, I always get stuck with a) the lazy classmate or b) the arrogant classmate. Subject A does none of the work, so you end up stuck doing most of it yourself and coaching them at the last minute on what to say. Subject B doesn't listen to your suggestions, bangs out the first thing that comes to their minds (regardless if you've already said you have it half done or not), and then proceeds to hide in a hole and bitch about 'why isn't anyone else doing what I told them to?'. Additionally, both types of classmates are extremely hard to get ahold of and resist any type of group organization whatsoever.
And, of course, when it comes time to do a group presentation about a research paper in one of my classes, and I get placed in one of the two groups of three, guess which classmates I get stuck with? A little of column A, a little of column B. Joooooy.
I was supposed to leave this crud behind in high school, darnit.
