I'm unpredictable. Sometimes I'm super patient, other times I'm highly impatient. Sometimes I'm extremely hard working, other times I'm lazy. Sometimes I'm in the mood to have sex, other times I'm sterile.
[QUOTE="dave123321"]I keep getting Jim confused with aljosajimkabrhel
Come on man. I don't remotely sound Canadian.
or maybe I should say aljosa confused with Jim. Keep thinking that aljosa is you when it turns out it isn't you. But not the other way. For shorter posts. Since I just glance at the sig and make the wrong connection
My antisocial tendencies and unwillingness to "play the game". I also can be perceived as weird and alien. However, sometimes they prove to be in my advantage somehow, rarely though.
My antisocial tendencies and unwillingness to "play the game"...GazaAli
This has bitten me in the arse so many times in my working life, but the part of me that still acting like a rebellious teenager (despite being in my mid-twenties) won't let it go. I've come to the realisation that this is partly arrogance/sense of entitlement on my part. I've always felt undervalued/underused at work because throughout most of my education I was a high achiever, and had people telling me I'd be a success. Graduating into an economic crisis with no job skills soon put that notion to bed, but I still haven't let go of the idea that where I'm at is somehow beneath me. Maybe I'm not cut out for office work, but I lack the winning combination of luck, talent and persistence to make it in any of the creative fields I'd really want to pursue, so i should probably grow up at some point and put some real effort in to what I am doing.
To give a real response: I'm horrible at dealing with schedules or commitments. Contracts, events, jobs where I have to be committed during set times or at all times make me uncomfortable because my mind starts running through every possible thing I could be doing or what could have happened during that time or instead. No doubt it's a real pain in the ass for my friends who have actual commitments and then one guy who either over-commits to everything or doesn't at all or randomly comes up with spontaneous things to do. Also kind of a perfectionist.

I totally get what you mean. In my case I'm lacking some serious luck these days...
