Working in groups was difficult because I worked a full time job at night and went to school during the day. Between Monday to Friday I spelt a total of 10-20hours a week. Spent the weekends catching up on homework and studying. I love architecture and the design and building mocks up for our projects. I was kicked off of this group two days before it was due because I wasn’t pulling my weight and this one person told the teacher I did nothing but I did. This person wanted to do everything perfect and wanted to meet up at the times I couldn’t meet up. I even came up with days that I can call in sick to make this work. I didn’t disclose I had a learning a disability, but would it have matter? Nope! Because this person wanted to get achieve that 100+ because of their reputation, but I did tell the professor my side of the story and told them I wasn’t given the opportunity to do anything because they didn’t want low mark. This person lived a very privilege life during college, didn’t have to work, got a nice allowance from mom and dad and more. (This person told us) Did I get upset? Nope I said it was the best thing they could have happened, when you can’t work someone because the extreme high expectations your not including everyone and working with this personality was something I never ever worked before. I took two last two days, less than 48 hours and produced my own stuff and it was well worth it and got almost the same mark as they did. School wasn’t my strong suite but I completed anyway in my own way. Working with people can be difficult I learned a lot in my 18 yrs of retails. When things get tough just speak up and see if you can complete the project on your own. Some “leaders” on group do not care for anyone else’s ideas and it’s not fair. The thing I remember that my professor said wow getting it done less then 48hours this is impressive Stand up for yourself and You can do the impossible because I did. #learningdisabilities #collegelife #dyslexic #dotheimpossible #believeinyourself (at Toronto, Ontario) https://www.instagram.com/p/CNfAjEBFI-e/?igshid=jar0d5jkhhqy
