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.)

I think I've perfected the art of procrastination.
I think I spend more time and effort in putting off bits of work, than I would actually spend in just getting on with the job.

For example: I'm meant to be updating my website with review quotes for our titles. I can just copy and paste these quotes in from the online reviews. However, I print each review off, carefully label it with the month and publication/website it came from, and the catalogue number it refers to. Then I read each review through carefully, to select the best phrases. Then I type them up. Then I format it in html to make it look pretty.

After updating reviews for each title, I take a short break to play an online game, check for new QOTW entries on b3ta, or get a cup of water.

Updating the reviews section of the website is a task that will never be fully finished, thanks to my inability to just sodding get on with it.
