Evaluation

Working in a collaboration the second time around has been more than a challenge. Anthony has been incredibly efficient in time management, and has showed me the best way to keep on top of things, by making notes and lists, planning out on iCal or on my phone, then ticking off my to do lists.

Now time management is all well and good when work is produced, decisions are being made, as well as the pair working as a pair, not being as distant as an ex at a wedding.

I did learn that I am incredibly submissive and far too polite, allowing him to walk all over me, but this was not due to me being intimidated by him, but more of the reason that he would not agree until you at least compromise with what he wanted to do, or just agree, be it a type decision (which with his sole responsibility of this area, became VERY particular about it and allowed no conferring) layout (again, ego takes over) or even any image related decisions.

Taking the tone of the elder, more powerful one in the collaboration, he often spoke down to me, making a plethora of snide comments, rude remarks and being extremely patronising on more than one occasion in a week. It was quite hard to come to any sort of conclusion or decision with Anthony, and found that the conversation tended to loop back around which was the real thorn in the side of the project.

Overall I know I should never say this, but it feels like I wasted alot of credits thanks to the selfishness of Anthony, especially concerning his ties with Germany, his patronising, bitter personality, and not to mention his lack of decision making and input.

It was as draining as it was tiring, I feel like I could of had a decent piece of work, but instead I had a headache, ballache and a pisstake in the collaboration, and yet I only have myself to blame.
