I am much more productive when working alone. I can finish a task all by myself without the need to have group meetings or such. I feel very uncomfortable when working in a team that's why I have a hard time cooperating with others. It...

It started in kindergarten when I would always play alone in the corner. in second grade I was labeled a parallel player which meant I played along side the group but not with the group. I was so shy and just asking for a piece of paper...

Group work is one of the biggest reasons I can't stand school. Half the time it's not even necessary. The other day I had a teacher tell us to get in groups and watch us until she saw absolutely everyone in a group only to hand out a...

We live in hard times doesn't take a genius to figure that out, what is harder is to find a way to do something about our personal situation.
Through no fault of my own - a business failure I found myself and my family over $100K in...

Anytime a teacher put me in a group with a bunch of people I always hated it. I didn't like working with people because when they were suppose to be working they were always to busy talking. And me being socially awkward i...

I love working in a group when we are likeminded. But when confronted with the normal majority, I face the dilemma of horrible ideas that threaten perfect grades. They usually slack off and don't do their own work. I have to pester them...

It started in school. Whenever the teacher spoke the dreaded words, "get into groups" or "do this in groups" my heart would sink. I didn't have many friends and for a time I only had 3 friends so if we weren't in the...

I'm a loner in school but people know I'm smart so they want to be in my group. I usually end up with the populars and they make me do everything. Since they "don't understand it" and "I'm so smart" Sometimes they try to help but they...

Writing for me is a regular-if not daily occurence. I wouldn't necessarily call it "work", as I don't earn any money for it. For me, writing is a outlet and a form of expression. I write poetry, short stories, and essays. I left school...

I generally hate working in groups, and when it comes to my art I can't stand anyone being around when I'm drawing or painting. The only time I enjoyed working in a group was when I played in bands -- kind of hard to be in a band and...

When I was younger, I hated working in a group because nobody was ever interested in getting anything done except me. Honestly, this never failed: I was the only one who ever did any work. Or, even worse, other...

I can usually work with others around me but when I am writing some technical piece I prefer to be by myself and writing. If I get distracted I may have some poor daddy trying to place "screw A" in "slot C" when it should be the...

I have a hard time working with a lot of people, mostly because they interfere rather than help, and taking time to explain and train is just not efficient at all. There are less than a handful of people that I can actually work with...

I feel like if I am working in a group, I can't do things my way and I think better if I am alone.
