welcome to the working world. would you like fries with that?

i don't know why i included the line about fries. i just think it's funny. anyways, i started work yesterday. maybe i didn't tell everyone, so here it goes: i'm working as a temp for avon products as a lab tech. i work in the packaging evaluation and testing department. i was hired for this one project that will take 2-3 weeks. i may get offered another temp position after this project is up, but we'll have to wait until then. i can't go into great detail because i'm under some kind of confidentiality agreement. apparently, everything i see is not on the market yet!

anyways, my project team is made up of 3 people, including me. they're all recent college grads trying to get some work experience and make a few bucks. not that this is news to me, but i don't work well in groups, at least not with incompetent people. i always end having to either do the work myself or fix their mistakes. either way, i get frustrated. without getting into detail, here's what happened today: the other 2 guys don't know what they're doing. yeah, it may be a bit harsh. but i spend more time fixing their work and asking them what they did than doing my own part of the project. they're nice guys, don't get me wrong, but they don't have good work ethics. i guess i'll just have to suck it up and keep going. if there's a flaw in the project, it's not my fault. the problem with that, though, is that i'm grouped with them and the flaw in the project. aiya. it's a no win situation. granted, it's only the second day, so we'll see what happens for the remainder of the project.
