You know, procrastination is actually pretty good. I'd estimate that about a third of the requests given to me don't actually need to be done. And if you procrastinate long enough and don't do it, there are no repercussions. Many problems I come across end up fixing themselves or simply going away. (But I deal with people, and not equipment like some of you. YMMV.)

the only thing i can think of right now that goes better with procrastination is eating. hunger pangs tend to last 15 minutes, and if i dont panic and eat at the first one, i do much better. of course, i just ate, so i'm able to see that.

Happy Monkey · 11-30-2007, 07:14 PM

Is there a non-procrastination thread?

LJ · 11-30-2007, 07:49 PM

i was going to make that one tomorrow.

SteveDallas · 11-30-2007, 11:31 PM

I would reply to this if I wasn't busy setting up a database server that needs to be done by 1PM Monday.
