    See title. In school, university, or whatever, are you a very hard worker? How much time and effort do you dedicate to your work compared to other things? Do you enjoy working?
     
    No, barely any, and no. I'm a lazy old cat that just likes to relax. I do get work done to a decent standard though.

    If it's something I'm interested in I'll spend a whole lot of time paying meticulous attention to detail though, usually in a history essay, on rare occasions in English.
    Housework is another matter, it has to be perfect.
     
    er no I just can't get into a sweat as I am lazy
     
    I try to work hard, but there are just days where I'm just like "Ugh no please go away I don't wanna work anymore."
    Especially in maths. And subjects I'm good at. Which isn't great I guess? Either way I'm working on changing that and stuff.
     
    Yeah I'm a pretty hard worker. I spend whatever time is necessary to get the job done, which is generally a lot. I've spent entire days purely dedicated to studying and researching. Sometimes I enjoy it if I'm doing something I find interesting but it's not too bad either way, generally speaking.
     
    I'm at work right now and what am I doing? Browsing through PC. Yeah, I'm not a very hard worker. I prefer to work smart over working hard and only do what actually needs doing. Not that I can't work hard, because I can and I'm good at it when I do, but I don't often feel what I'm doing is worth the extra effort if, say, my boss isn't going to notice either way so long as I get things done.
     
    I work pretty hard when I need to (at work), but I do take breaks and play around on the internet and such. Too bad PC is blocked. Oh well, that's why I have my DS and Nook for when we are slow! XD Otherwise, I am pretty lazy... I only do stuff when I have to x.x
     
    Yes, I take school and working seriously. I work pretty hard and study hard for tests and such. But I still like to have fun in school also.
     
    I'm not a very hard worker. Most of the time I put in 60-70% effort, sometimes I just can't be bothered working at all. Of course, that only applies to physical work or work outside of school, for when I'm at school, I put a lot of work into my schooling. I like to think i'm ahrd worker at school, but I'm a terrible procrastinator and put off my homework until the lst minute, so sometimes my hard work at school is for nothing.

    lazy goldigger forever
     
    Most times I'm a hard worker, but in rare cases I just don't feel like doing the work given to me. (It will probably be more severe second half of this school year if "senioritis" gets the better of me.)
     
    At work, I am. Do everything that I'm told and sometimes then some, if it needs to get done. I'm getting paid to work, I better put in all my effort. I like having a job. Not only does it pay the bills, it gives me social interaction and something to do. My boss told me I was one of the hardest workers she'd seen in her career, which was really flattering. :)

    When I was in school, so-so. I pretty much always did my homework, but sometimes I didn't put full effort into it. It depended on the assignment, when I was doing it, if I even enjoyed it, that kind of thing.

    PC, I need to work on that. I slack a little too much sometimes. Makes me feel like crap. I should've been on like 3 hours ago.

    At home? HAHAHAHA. You don't want to see the state of my apartment right now. I have a few days before company comes over and I've hardly started cleaning. >_>
     
    No. I have a lot of potential, blahblah. I should really get my life together and focus on it blahblah. I don't care. If it doesn't mean something to me on a personal level, then chances are I won't be putting forth all my effort. I can when I need to or when it's important, which is usually never as I have a skewed view of importance.

    I'm a slacker in every sense of the word loves. I do my homework the period before it's do, and do my projects the night before the deadline etc. Yeah, so I'm not that much of a hard worker unless I have personal motivation
     
    I used to be a ridiculously hard worker, but as I've gotten older, my work-effort has diminished almost exponentially. I'm still relatively intelligent to know when to use the word 'exponentially', but I probably don't do as much work as I should. With regards to the amount of hard work I can do: if I get up early in the morning, I can do a reasonable length of time. If I wake up late, the day will pretty much be wasted for some reason or another. It's unfortunate, but I blame the lackadaisical British university structure for morphing me from a relatively good worker into a lazy slacker. Not myself, of course not!
     
    Depends on what it is. I used to be a hardcore hard worker as far as homework was concerned, but that seemed to taper off as I made my way through college and began to get lazy. Nowadays, unless it's something I'm passionate about or interested in doing, I'm just gonna put in the minimally adequate effort necessary to get the job done. I don't feel like putting in more effort than I need unless it's something I feel is important to me.
     
    I work my butt off for anything I have to do.

    I'm not going to school right now, and I'm part-time in a bakery. But I work 38+ hours a week, always stay late or come in early, and they refuse to make me a full timer. I rarely mess up, and the only time my manager points anything out about the way I work is when I've done something wrong.

    But putting that aside, I like working. I like the people I work with. When half of the opening shifts work isn't thrown on me, work is fun because I can take it easy. But more often than not, I'm stressing haha.

    i'm getting used and i know it. they want to work me full time hours, but not pay me as a full timer. i'm not freaking stupid lmfao.

    I claim myself guilty at being a hard worker when it comes to school assignments, projects, and if I had one at the moment, work. I can't help it, but I've always been the over achiever amongst people. I never settle for doing what's the minimum requirement of something, but rather I go beyond what's needed. I consider it a gifted habit and a curse. While working extremely hard pays off in the long run, it can sometimes keep me back from doing the things people my age would normally rather be out doing. I will say that I do have my moments of procrastinating, however.

    When it comes to other things, such as chores or even self interests (like here for instance), there are times when I just don't feel up to pushing myself and working hard at it, but I end up slacking off a bit. I usually pick myself up after awhile though, but I guess you could say that when it comes to things that's not so high in priority, I might not always take it as seriously as other things.
