This is a question Procrastination

Outlook is a wonderful tool, but not when it keeps reminding you that it is now 96 weeks since you were supposed to finish a report you haven't even started yet.

Just how lazy are you? How long will you put off the essential or the inevitable? What do you fill the time with?

(We're too lazy to write something funny here. You do it.)

Car insurance
My procrastination sin is an absoulte failure to be bothered reading anything official looking. Like car insurance documents.

I thought that becuase i had paid the car insurance i was therefore insured! Right?

Wrong.

Luckily my dad very kindly taxed my car whilst i was on holiday and discovered that the big fat letter from the insurance people which i had opened was not, as i had deduced from reading the company logo, an insurance policy. It was in fact a policy request form which required my signature and all that other official document type stuff. He duly broke the law and signed the thing on my behalf and hey presto i was taxed and insured.

Next morning on the drive to work my rear view mirror is filled with flashing blue lights and the boys in blue with a grin on their faces. "It seems that this car is not insured son"

I laughed. A lot

If it hadnt been for my dad i would have been well and truly shafted thanks to my laziness. Its always a pleasure getting one over the fuzz though!

Thanks dad.

I am lazy
And leave searching for my policy till teh day it runs out. Oddly on the last two occasions I've done this, the quote from two weeks previous suddenly became ~£200 less! I'm not complaining!

Nice one
Way back when the world was black and white and I was a 16 year old snee, I had one of those 50cc mopeds. When it came to insuring it, I aksed my older (and wiser?) brother where I should go. His response? "If you're stopped, tell the police you're insuring yourself."

I know, I know...

I believed him for about 3 months until one day he asked who my insurer's were, when I told him I was insuring myself, he went pale and told me it was a joke...

Damn, should have really posted this in the evil pranks QOTW...
