My mate was like this but it was his mam doing it so at the end of one holiday we rammed a load of proper grotty mags in his case for his mam to rummage thro upon his return.

Caught the end of an interview on radio4 this morning some ex army guy doing a radio interview while changing his daughters nappy and some condescending lass (the other half of the interview) "women wouldn't even mention it ,its what we do "."Men are like hedgehogs,women are foxes keeping an eye on everything ",!! " i can be cooking a meal ,helping my daughter with her homework and on the phone to my office " like she's a genius .
Turnsout the bloke was in a head of a unit in afghanistan and regularly spoke in the local speak while leading men and listening to two languages coming across the radio waves.
Surely this woman thing is a myth?
Surely some people are good at it and others not regardless of gender ?

That woman is a sexist, stereotyping men, I'm outraged.

When the lads used to call on the way to the pub I'd come downstairs wearing a wrinkled shirt and she'd say "yer not goin out like that with yer shirt all wrinkled" ?

"Aye, why" ?

"Well you'll look stupid".

"No you will love cos everyone will say", "look at that poor bastid, been to work etc and his mrs couldn't be arsed to iron his shirt",

"Pass it here".


Lasted a few years till she cottoned on like.

So,"Doing lots of stuff at the same time without neglecting any in favour of the others and using a priority type system to make sure it all appears normal" rather than spinning plates
And "something unexpected happening during a controlled process which requires reassessment" rather than curve ball
You're right ,much easier ;)

Generally multi tasking is not possible. People may be able to organise things so other stuff gets done in the ‘downtime’ of the other, but when splitarses claim they do 3 things at once they are largely talking nonsense

Multitasking is cooking the tea with one hand and ironing with the other

If they put something on the boil, and in the gap of waiting for the next thing to go in the oven they wash the dishes, then this is not multi tasking
