During these past few days, I would not say I have been irritated. That is not quite the word I would use for my current set of emotions. I am a combination of discouraged and surprised. Whatever emotion is birthed from the two is the state I am in while I'm working with my partners. I have come to the realization that the amount of effort I put in and the extent to which I want to invest in an idea to produce a product will not always be evident in others. I am surprised to note that though my partners can seem unreliable and obnoxious, they will get the job done. Even more so, they are competitive by nature, which drives them to produce great ideas and utilize their connections to make the idea a reality. The partners I have are goofy and sometimes make vulgar jokes; yet, the are as motivated as I am. They are perceived as immature; yet the truth is, they like to balance work and play. The only observable detriment is that sometimes time becomes the enemy with such a mindset. My role is not to keep on task. My task is to make sure they have a segment to complete because regardless of what I say or do, they will get their part done. with that being said, as long as I hold myself accountable, the project will get done in a timely manner.
