Title: Lazy workers might be useful.

If I did not carry the load it was made very clear to hit the road. Has anyone had a lazy coworker during their career?  I can honestly say I did not.

There is a difference between lazy and efficient.

I am in a task-driving workplace that doesn't reward initiative beyond the work given to you.  Get the job done, done well and don't let one's procrastination (much of it on Scoop) impact your coworkers then that is not lazy.

I did have a co-worker who did everything but work.  When crunch time came and the rest of us had to drop what we were doing and pick up his slack we soon took the issue to the boss and the dude was fired.  He now "works" for the federal government.
