Everybody likes to have fun and sometimes we just can’t resist goofing off. Today’s program is all about irresponsibility. Join Maura and Andrew for their chat about wasting time, being unproductive, and taking it easy.

Andrew:

What about you when you have something to do Maura? Do you procrastinate? Do you goof off or are you a very focused person?

Maura:

Hmm. I think that I used to goof off more in the past and now when I get down to work I just want to get it out of the way because I think that just thinking about having to do the work is actually more stressful than actually doing it. And when you do it you feel good that the work is done.

Expressions from this episode included in the Learning Materials:

Saint Joseph’s

To put someone on the spot

To goof off

Off the top of my head

Crunch time

To screw around

To scrap

To monkey around

Kids will be kids

At the end of the day

Sweet

Youth is wasted on the young
