Muti-task vs single task...

what do you all think

Contraly to popular belief I am a woman who cannot mutitask and in the carreer world that's a curse

 

Edit: My original post was far too sexually graphic. Sorry.

 

I have an idea today is Thanksgiving....
Can we have ONE day of you being positive???

 

there are certain things i can multi task & others that i cant.

i think multi tasking is an extreamly hard thing to do because you need to focus your attention on something to do it properly. its extreamly hard to split your attention & still achieve good results.

the only time i can multi task is when i'm doing something that dosent require much attention like filing my nails, i can chat on the phone while doing them.

i can type while on the phone but i notice i make many more mistakes then if i was just doing one or the other. sometimes when i'm typing & on the phone the person on the other end of the line knows i'm not paying attention properly.

 

honestly, i don't think that popular belief says you're able to multitask...


although it would probably be easier sober.

anyway, it really depends on your job.

 

Shit...I can smoke, drink coffee, crank one out and surf the web all at the same time. I put it on my resume but...no response yet.

MYTH. BUSTED.

 

IVy... what are the items on the wall behind you in your sig pic? I'm especially interested in what appears to be a....paddle?!

 

Good eye.....
She wants to be spanked remember?

 

how could I forget?!

I'd like to see a picture of that paddle in action Ivy....

 

I never even thought about it but I think I listed it as a skill on my resume to fill up some of the blank space....however I don't think that's the reason I get hired or that employers even get that far into my resume. It's more about the real skills, training, experience, competence, etc that you have than on some phantom ability to talk and type at the same time.

 

I'd like to put that paddle into action, Ivy...

 

sorry

forgive me I was just curious

 

I can do alot of things.. at once.. and more than once sometimes..

 

shit I cant even see it

it's my dad's fraturnity paddle

he had to go through hazing

 

no wait I can barely see it

 

I'm forever multi-tasking. With three kids and a hubby to take care of, I wouldn't get much of anything done if I didn't!

 

haha that would be nice

i prefer a hand or belt

 

good morning Ivy....how are we today?!
