Doing a little robotics research at school and I needed to pick a faculty advisor.

I pick the prof who teaches the robotics course bc I thought it’d be a great fit

Apparently he’s an assistant prof and he is EXTREMELY unorganized (doesn’t respond to emails, occasionally skips entire meetings without telling me first, etc. )

I send him an email to discuss more about our research...

5 days later he responds and sends me a video invite

He ends up making another kid (a complete stranger to me) work with me.

“Well 2 brains are better than 1 I guess” i said in my mind

Finally meet with the kid and he knows nothing

This is why I like working alone

Everytime I join a group (especially for CS stuff) I am the only person who knows what’s going on and I end up doing the whole thing by myself and 5x slower bc I have to explain every fucking thing to my group mates

I’m done w group work
