Multitasking Case

Multi-tasking has been going on for a very long time. Sure people have learned to multi-task more frequently and in depth. It can be very dangerous depending on when you are multi-tasking. For example: Texting, driving and putting makeup on all at the same time. People do not think of the negative outcomes that can occur while multi-tasking. But there can also be some positives to multi-tasking too.

"Multi-tasking should carry a health warning," As the author states in the article "I now skillfully pee, clean my teeth and read the paper, all at the same time." Multi-tasking can be very stressful and straining on a relationship. The author also mentions "I guess we must accept that there are activities that should never be combined." When people tend to obsess about it, it can change their life in a negative way. Such as: Doing paper work, spending time with your kids and cleaning. How is there any time for their family? As the author states in her paper "I leap up, hurled my notes into the air and screeched insanely." That shows how it effects some people so badly that they can't be pleasant while trying to work anymore, so they become angry and take their aggression and stress out on the people they care the most about. They are on edge all the time, aggressive, emotional or just extremely stressed to the point where they just want to keep getting things done and it doesn't matter who it affects. They tend to push people away without even realizing it.

For example: Holding your baby while reading them a paper you are writing or brushing your teeth while taking a shower. There is nothing wrong with doing those things and they are not hazardous. The small things you can do to multi-task will not be harmful or stressful to anybody. When you multi-task this small; you have more time for your family and friends rather than being so stressed out that you would snap at the first joke someone says.

Depending on how far you are willing to go to multi-task will determine the negative or positive affect it will have on your life. People do not tend to realize the harmful effects it can have, so they continue to keep doing it. Multi-tasking is a problem for several people more so than a practice. In this day and age some people just can't live without multi-tasking and that can be harmful. For some people it is like a drug, they get addicted and just can't stop so they continue to do it. People should take a second look when they begin to multi-task and ask there self if it is really worth it and if they really need to save the time at that moment. Saving time is always a good thing and that is what you do when you multi-task. Just remember there could possibly be a negative outcome. So is it
