I hate, hate, hate the term ‘multitasking’. I can’t tell you why I hate it - it just doesn’t sit well with me. When someone tells me that they are multitasking - I get the impression that they aren’t really paying 100% attention to one particular task - - but, rather, some attention to several tasks. If that person happens to be performing a task for me - I feel like my task is maybe getting 60-80% of their attention, instead of 100%. If I’m a client who has paid this person to perform this task - then I get increasingly irked because if I paid for it, then I want 100% of your attention. Am I wrong here?
That being said - I multitask. Who doesn’t, really? Can we really get anything done in a day without some of our attentions spread out across several areas?
