Thread: Those Who Can't Multi-Task Might As Well Die...

    Moogle Those Who Can't Multi-Task Might As Well Die...

    so, i get to add these to my busy list tomorrow (the day before i get a few days off to California):

    1) work (10:16am - 3:00pm)
    2) wash the bedsheets - has several grueling procedures, but i have to since relatives will be coming in a few days (3:00pm - ???)
    3) shave (can do after work if i wear long pants)
    4) attend church small group, which occurs each Wednesday (7:15pm - 9:15pm)
    5) friend's birthday party (10:00pm - ???)

    then my lousy, lazy brother wants me to do his laundry. first off, he arrives home at 11:15pm tonight and spends the last hour and a half staring at a computer screen - plenty of time wasted, while his laundry could've been finished by now. Zodiac - 1982 - Dog = Total Bimbo (just the louse i call my brother, xD). i could imagine a house fire if he left on the stove and let his pc keep him occupied...

    EDIT: sorry about the topic. thanks to my brother setting off the alarm, i get to apply a radical theme to it. well, to multi-task wrong could still be fatal...

    The topic here is the importance of multitasking, I guess.

    eh, yes, but i hate washing the bedsheets since i have to clean them all, which includes:

    1. taking out the bedsheets (this requires some work because they obviously don't come off magically)
    2) take them to the laundromat (that's a 15min drive back and forth, counting traffic)
    3) after sitting and waiting for them to dry, i now have to put them back the way they belong

    so, just imagine the hotel maids, with all that cleaning! shaving, that usually takes about 10min, but i'm also taking a bath by then, which is about 15+ minutes.

    the fact goes, my brother is still a lousy bum. well, due to "church protocol" i'll have to forgive and forget - eventually...

    Sounds like a chore to juggle all of that work in one day. Oh man.

    Can't you make him do some of the work?

    I cannot multitask. Like, I can't sit at the computer and type while talking to someone (on the phone or otherwise) at the same time. I type what I say, or I say what I type. So I end up either giving up the conversation, or not using the computer. Sucks to be me.
    This subliminal message could be meant for YOU. But it's probably not. Move along ;D

    I am multi-tasking to the max. Not only am I typing but I am also...get this. Breathing and regulating my heart beat AAAAAAND viewing this monitor. Let us not also forget that I can hear everything around me. That is true multi-tasking people. Good thing God has this Human OS thing down or we would be screwed.
