I did all the work and then faked a flat tire and let them present alone.

I'm in a class where a group research project slash presentation is a huge chunk of overall points.

Everyone knows in group projects you always have that one slacker who doesn't do anything that you

have to compensate for. However, I got stuck with possibly the three worst

people to be in a project with in the class. I did the entire research, presentation,

poster boards, among many other annoying things myself. I tried talking to them and telling them

they needed to put in their share of the effort. I was ignored. I'd send them tasks to do, ignored.

I'd try to schedule meetings, they'd say they were coming and then leave me alone at the library.

This happened from the get-go.

It was abundantly clear that they expected everyone else to do the work, but everyone else turned out to be just me.

As a rule, we couldn't have things 100% memorized word for word, and we couldn't read off

anything.

We actually had to know the subject.

I was fully prepared to do most of the talking, and even wrote down a small script for them,

and told them to know what to say during their part at the very least.

The night before, I told them we had to meet to at least go over the whole

thing one time. Once again, none of them showed. The professor had stated at the beginning

that we were not allowed to contact him about people slacking off in the group, and said to work it

out amongst ourselves, said that we were adults and that he wouldn't even respond to emails

about it. At this point, I'm livid and decide they can just do it themselves, which means they'd get

up there and not know a damn thing to say other than the small info I gave them, and couldn't

even bull crap anything because they did no research.
