All in a days work...


Hello Internet,

Today in science class, we were doing an experiment where we made a super-saturated substance. I went through all the trouble of measuring the beakers and the mass of the sugar, while other group members did their role.

We did what we had to do. We got a hot plate and heated it up and added lots of sugar to the water, until we concluded that there couldn't be anymore. All of this took about half the period (about 20 minutes).

At the end, we were supposed to find out how much sugar the water could take. Instead, one person in our group went over to the garbage can and dumped the remainder of the sugar. I tried (with little effort) to stop him.

I believe he volunteered to do the experiment on his own again in the morning, but for the rest of the day (it was the last period, so that wasn't very long), I sarcastically said "Good job" to him.

Honestly, I wasn't very mad at him because he actually put a good amount of effort into the actual experiment and didn't slack off.

Now, I don't quite know what to ask here, so just put your own thoughts about this story below. If you can add you own stories, that would be great.

Thanks for reading,
