I've Decided I'm Not A Team Player.

Maybe it's just more only child syndrome, but honestly, I get things done better when I'm left alone instead of having someone chained to my ankle to whom I have to explain every step of what I'm doing instead of just being given the freedom to frikkin' GET IT DONE.

And anyway, I've noticed that people who harp on that whole "there's no i in team" shit are people who tend to be a bit inept and probably depend on "teamwork" to carry their lame asses.

TEAMWORK barf

There is no 'I' in "team" but there is an 'M' and an 'E' and that spells "ME!". lol Where's that from again?

Same here. When I have to team up with people it's like walking in quicksand, so I usually just sit there and do nothing and go "oh, good thinking!" when people puzzle stuff out like five times slower than I would have figured it out.

I'm not trying to be snobby or braggy - there are PLENTY of people who make me feel stupid in this world - but unfortunately I don't usually find myself working with them.

Very true-bastard hippies-peace love and a shower every 48 days! eek

I'm a Capricorn and an only child and I'm the same way Anxiety, gotta do things on my own cause I can't be bothered explaining 50 times.

Best to stick with your own vision and get it done how you want.

agreed, but you know how some people are, especially in the workplace. the whole teamwork thing is like sacred or something, and when i suggest doing something my damn self they're all like "we work as a TEAM in this office".

well poo-pee-la-de-shit. no wonder nothing ever gets done. sigh
