"H'okay, run out 3 take away food orders.... The porterhouse goes to the blue mercedes otherwise known as jim-the-guy-that-drools, take his credit card, keep in mind that it's a blue visa. It's in my shirt pocket. The 2nd order goes to the black dark green escalade, otherwise known as tina-my-voice-is-higher-then-a-mouse. She gets the Alice Chicken, gives me a $20, wants $5 dollars back. Run to the 3rd car and give them their food order, another blue visa card. oiy. I forget his name? and I think his car was silver. . . it could of been a cream color though, most likely a passat. Oh. . .crap. . . 2 other cars pull up. Quickly run to each car window, ask their name [Hi! picking up for Susan. Hi! Picking up for Gleason!]
Run back to inside the Curbside Take-Away headquarters at the restaurant, rolling around their names in my head, looking for more food orders for the cars that pulled up, Get the change for that $20, Run both credit cards through the machine [remember which one belongs to who], take out receipts and cards back in black books, with 2 pens, the extra change from that $20, and the extra food orders for Susan and Gleason. And crap. . . the camrea shows 2 3 more cars pulling up. A Red Ford Explorer? hmmmm. . . that must be John.
Get Jim and what's-his-face to sign their copies of the receipt. Ignoring the fact that I got tipped just a dollar. Tina hands me over a $5 tip in cash, which i stick in my pocket. . . hopefully i'll remember who it came from so i can re-type that in the machine, and she says she is missing her bread and butter, and will not move her freakin escalade until I get it for her. . . . And. . . oh great. . . it's starting to rain. . . perfect. . . "

^What goes on in Katie's head in a span of 5 minutes at work.

In otherwords. . .

Are you good at multi-tasking? Can you juggle a bunch of things at once? Or do you throw everything up in the air, sit on the sidewalk, and bawl like a baby.

Personally, I am pretty good at multi-tasking. But on a Saturday at Outback, and being the only person running food to cars. . . yeah. . . I could bawl if given the opportunity.

I am currently doing my homework as I browse through the forums. Now that's multitasking.

[Smoogrish]

Hahaha, I got throught the first line, and then I was like "THE HELL?". You think randomly.

I read in Popular Science (DORK!) that you don't really multitask. It's just your brain switching between things really really quickly. In answer to your question, no, I suck at multitasking. I don't usually do anything but sit in front of my computer and get nothing done. I should really stop that.

[*WHIMSICAL 0NE*]

Does it count as multitasking if you're trying to do something and keep getting destracted but always go back to the first thing you were doing? Because I do that a lot. I think that's called ADD

Sometimes I can multitask, it really depends on what I'm doing.

[marzipan]

Hm...I can multi-task...somewhat. I guess it depends what things I'm doing.

[breakingdawn]

I can multi-task... like do my homework while I watch TV, or talk to someone on the phone while I talk to someone else on aim...

I can't really think of anything else though.

[HakunaMatata]

Bawl like a baby, and for hours at that.

[michellerrific]

I can multitask pretty well. I'm often on the phone while online also downloading songs and doing homework at the same time.

[YaGurlSukedMe2SL...]

i can breathe and do a lot of other things at once

[Jeng]

Yah I'm good at multi tasking, doing thing's while doing other thing's. :D

[HakunaMatata]

And on a side note, Katie, that was the most interesting stream-of-conciousness paragraph I've ever read.

[*stephinika*]

Haha aww Katieee.

Depends. For the most part yes, I can multi-task but on some days I'm better than others. Hehe...

[multifaceted]

Sure. I am typing, growing, blinking, making my lamp shake, exercising by twisting my body into strange positions, listening to the clock tick, etc.

With homework and those kind of things, no, not really.
