Andy: Peter, what are you doing watching TV?! I thought you had a big paper to write! Peter: I do. I figured I'd work more efficiently if I lumped all my study breaks together and got them out of the way ahead of time This way I can write my essay without any interruptions to my thought process. By my count, I've got another 30 minutes of goofing off to go. Peter: You know, some parents encourage their kids to think creatively!

Peter must subscribe to the same work ethic that Calvin does. I wonder whether he had a stuffed tiger for a companion before he discovered girls?

Fine line between “creative” and “slacker” …

Yes, it’s called the “brain on” versus “brain off” switch. :)
OK, that’s overstating things. Creative people often need time simply to digest their ideas mentally before they work. But Peter’s being too creative in his slacking, if you follow me…

At work I always tried to get the hard part done by lunch so I could slide through the afternoon. Guess I was a lazy bum.

Lewreader: I do the same, but that’s because I know I’m more productive in the mornings than in the afternoons… :)

Think outside the Box , Peter. There’s always the internet. Or texting. Or looking out the window. Or… Sorry, I was distracted.

Where I work at someone add a log book so when paperwork comes in we log in then file. When someone needs to check go to log book to see if in. They can also see the file to make sure the document didn’t miss getting logged in.
Peter your typical of most teenagers putting off homework. School will soon be out for a lot of kids.
