Instructions

Things You'll Need:

Step 1

Don't follow instructions. If an editor or a boss tells you to turn something in a certain format, just forget it. Or be lazy about it. Following intstructions only makes you look like a puppet! Be a rebel, do things your own way all the time and enjoy the benefits of not having anyone to answer to, or any electricity.
Step 2

Misspeal thnigs. Misspealed wrods can be vrey distracting to readers. Aslo, it makes you look like you dno't know how to writ, even when you may be prefectly capable of doin so. Take the time to proofread your wrok, take it from me...
Step 3

Don't turn anything in on time. Time frames? Psht. Forget it, time frames, shmime frames.
Step 4

Flake at the last minute. Sure you agreed to get something done or be responsible for something, but what if you just don't FEEL like doing it or getting it done? Try flaking, especially at the last minute. Leaving people in the lurch to cover for you makes your fail more complex.

on 11/20/2008 I am feeling pretty good about myself, confident that I am completely, successfully failing at being an action heroine.
