school group projects are just unpaid emotional labor

Okay, can we just talk about how school group projects are legit just unpaid emotional labor??? Like, I'm not just doing my part, I'm also the project manager, therapist for whoever's slacking, and the one who has to chase down everyone's contributions. It's exhausting and my grades shouldn't depend on someone else's zero effort. PLS tell me I'm not the only one feeling this. #GroupprojectHell #UnpaidLabor #StudentStruggles #Burnout #WhyAreWeLikeThis

OMG YESS. This is so real it hurts. Every single time I end up carrying the whole damn thing. It's giving main character energy but in the worst way possible bc I just want to pass, not run a whole damn company for free. The mental load is insane. 😩

Fr tho. And then you have that one person who just... disappears. Like, did they drop out? Are they just ghosting? Idk, but now *I* gotta cover their part or we all fail. So unfair. πŸ’€
