How I hate group projects

How I hate group projects and group works! Seriously! When individual performance within group is not evaluated, than there are always free riders, but when it is, group members just waste my time and talk for the sake of talking without a point. Either way, I usually am the person who does most of the work, because I don’t trust others and because my standards are usually higher than everyone else’s. So what that according to Confucians values a good leader has to follow well as well when the reason why I’m being appointed one or I appoint myself for a leader of a group, is that nobody else is capable of organizing the group well; and if I were a follower, I usually believe that my way is better than the appointed leader’s, and I get frustrated that he/she can’t coordinate the other’s work and as a result I will get a worse outcome. Who the hell came up with an idea that group work is such a great thing?! I mean some constructive brainstorming is great but with people who are equally motivated and have something new and important to say, not a bunch of people who want a good grade and just blab their way through the whole thing. I had the best group work and group presentation at the beginning of last semester when everyone was still excited and interested, or on a totally trivial topic of social networks back in Germany. Right now I’m just annoyed. The purpose of the group projects and presentations is to prepare us for the “real world”; and ppl think that because it’s a fake situation one doesn’t have to try hard at all… but how the hell do they wanna learn?! UGH!
