In my course, we have to take up this module called PCB (prototyping of circuit board) Sounds chim but can be fun with wire wrapping and soldering then get your hand burn! wakaka!
One of my team members, PERSON X…I know is someone who is not the participative type of person.
Well, not participative…least you could do is by being cooperative.
Dinah : “where is your slide on features?”
Person X: “umm..havent do..I dunno how”
Ok. Fine.. I was thinking maybe I give ‘PERSON X’ a guide or help..so I said..
Dinah: “ u look at question 3…”
Dinah was about to discuss the question with person X and so…
Person X looks at question 3…then silence for like 5 mins ++
Dinah assume that ‘PERSON X’ has gotten the answer since ‘PERSON X’ seems to look serious at his computer.
Dinah: “so..Gotten the answer already…wats the answer?”
PERSON X: “umm..i still duno how to do..”
Dinah blood boiling but she tries to show the calm face…
Dinah: “Ouh ok…so what are goin to do? What are goin to present?
PERSON X: “ umm..let me take a look at the powerpoint slides. Hmm…I dun noe leh..”
Dinah gets frustrated whenever ‘PERSON X’ says “I DON’T Know” phrase. She doesn’t understand what PERSON X is trying to tell her. She’s confused, frustrated and trying to clear her doubts.
Dinah: “then how? so you not presenting anything?”
PERSON X just raises his shoulder up and down and keep saying I Don’t know.
Dinah: Ouh….so tat means you never do work?
She did not realize what she was saying but because she is so confused…She blurted out those unintentional hurtful words.
He just keep quiet…then I immediately ask one of my team mates to give one of his slides to PERSON X as I only have one slide to present.
In Conclusion……..
If you don’t want to do work, please find something to contribute even though you are just going to present only one part of the worksheet.
I would like to apologize if I did ever say hurtful words but during work or project, I take it seriously…
So, if you are around the bush, I can be confused and get stressed up.
If you don’t want to be direct in personal stuff, I don’t mind but when involving work, please don’t confuse me. Hehe…coz I will get frustrated.
