College student exposes professor's favorite for doing zero work on their group project: 'Giovanni didn't show up'

Some people are highly skilled at getting out of doing any actual work… that is, until they meet their match. We're used to seeing this dynamic play out in work environments or in certain relationship dynamics, but one of the earliest examples of this kind of flawed collaboration is the group project. Group projects don't necessarily teach you about collaboration; if anything, they teach you about how to deal with the givers and takers of this world. That is the only silver lining with a group project for those of you who are often stuck doing the majority of the work.

This college student finally found a way to get back at Giovanni, their professor's favorite student who was actually the slacker of this story. The student was given a detailed rubric that this time required them to take diligent notes about the progress of their group work. They made sure to include notes in meetings about Giovanni not showing up or leaving early or other members of the group having to meet to do his part. The best part is that the original poster shared these notes with all team members (including Giovanni) prior to submitting them to the professor, so Giovanni didn't even bother to take a look and see that his lack of effort was on full display.
