The worst words any college student can hear are, "you'll be working in groups for this assignment." Group work is the bane of our existence. It's inevitable and no matter how many times you've worked in a group, it never gets any easier. Michael Scott and the rest of the Dunder Mifflin crew understand.

When your professor announces to the class that the project worth 50% of your final grade is going to be done in a group.

When you look around at the people you were assigned to and they're the absolute worst and weirdest people.

When you try to take initiative and schedule a time to meet but no one will cooperate with you.

When you finally get together and everyone is already thinking about leaving.

When your group members open their mouths and you wonder how they even got into college.

The moment when you realize you're going to have to do this entire project yourself.

When that one person always questions everything you guys do.

When everyone keeps getting sidetracked and you've accomplished nothing.

When you have to awkwardly confront the person not pulling their weight.

When your professor asks you how the project is going.

When you reach the breaking point.

When the project is due tomorrow and your group has managed to mess everything up.

Trying to put it all back together like

When they start to feel bad and ask if you need help.

When it's finally presentation day and they ask what parts they should do, but all you trust them to do is...

When you get your grade back and they all got A's thanks to you since they did nothing.

But it's all over now and you never have to talk to those people ever again.

...Until the next group assignment
