Teamwork



I have recently come to the conclusion that you should have a teamate for absolutely everything in life. When a problem comes along, who is better to blame than a teamate? And when you don't want to do the work, who has to pick up the slack? You guessed it, your teamate. The only downside to having a teamate, is if he too is a slacker and lacks the motivation needed from a truly effective team. Some may also argue that both parties should equally distribute the workload. To me that just sounds like your team has no direction. If you really want to accomplish a task, you need to have a supervisor and a worker. I opt to be the supervisor. A major problem is that we seem to require teams for only large tasks. Why not for common and easy tasks like eating, thinking, driving...etc. The possibilities are endless. Having a teamate there to assist would just make life so much simpler. Imagine not having to use all your energy picking up your sandwhich, when your teamate could do pick it up for you. All you would have to do is chew (which he could also help with, but that might get a little creepy). Or maybe a teamate to help with laundry? You could just worry about getting the clothes dirty, while your teamate cleans them. I honestly don't think we should demand so much out of ourselves anymore. Instead, find the teamate that perfectly compliments yourself.
