No.  I'm aware of it and yet I still underachieve mightily at everything.  Sucks, but eh, life goes on.

Nope. Luckily I'm very talented at putting out quality products with the least necessary amount of work.

Hell no. My worth ethic is "the less I can do, and the more I can get away with; the better job I've done"

At school, it's something like this, though I tend to be much harder working than my brother.

If I did, my novel would be more than an outline and a few scattered scenes.

I have an Epic Saga that I've been toying with for the past 24 years and I've yet to write a single word of it.

Other people seem to think so. I used to insist the opposite, but stopped when I kept getting funny looks.

^^^^

Pretty much that. I'm very horrible at procrastinating, especially for school, but fortunately I've never been hindered too bad because of it (except for the the complete destruction of any reasonable sleep habits during finals week, of course). Still making a conscious effort to have a better work ethic, though, with mixed results.

As for me... It depends on what I'm doing.  Doing mindless busywork for teachers or bosses just frustrates me and pisses me off.  If its a project I enjoy, I'm quite efficient and proficient enough to get things done right.  But I have no patience, especially for stupidity, and my attention span for boring sh**t is lacking.

I'm a lazy SOB and generally do just enough to not get fired, but I haven't NOT had a job since Feb 1993 and have had a full time job since May of '94.  Sadly this streak could end at the end of the year....contract change coming up, should be ok, but there is nothing in concrete yet and it's making us all a little more nervous about it than we'd like to be.

But yeah, I'm a WASP from the midwest, so my "lazy" is relative.
