 "'Please don't talk to me': PhD student shares hilarious note on procrastination")
We all can relate to the problem of procrastination we face while we are trying to complete a task. We think that we can complete the task later after playing a video game for 10 minutes or after talking to a friend. But the 10-minute break keeps getting extended and we end up delaying the completion of our work. A PhD student has shared a hilarious note sarcastically pointing out this issue on their social media handle. The note read, “Please do not talk to me. I’m doing PhD work and if you speak to me, I will not stop because I am a terrible procrastinator! E-Mail if needed. Thank you.” Have a look at this note:
The sarcastic tweet has attracted a ton of reactions on Twitter. Some users also shared their methods that help them get rid of their tendency to delay their work. A user commented that during his Master’s degree, he and his fellow graduate students decided to put on headphones to symbolise that they were “plugged in” and would not respond when spoken to. He further added that he loved the idea, but others didn’t quite commit to it.
During my masters I was in an office with 5 other graduate students. We decided that headphones-in meant you were "plugged in" and would not respond when spoken too. I loved it, but others didn't quite commit to it.
