I hate group work, which is probably why as a teacher I hardly assign any. I was always the student who actually did my part and didn't want my grade to be determined by others.
Group work horror story care of my husband: He took his capstone class for Business while doing his Bachelors. He was in a group with one of his fraternity brothers, and two other students he didn't know but the prof made them a group. They had to do some sort of analysis on a company so they chose the one my mother worked for as it was a huge company and she was able to give them a ton of information. Each group member did their own part and I was proofreading the final product one or two days before it was due (it was summer session) and found that BOTH of the other group members had lifted ENTIRE PAGES of their work from the company website without referencing anything at all.
When my husband and his brother confronted the other two, they said nothing are weren't willing to do anything about it. So both my husband and his bro went to the professor because they didn't want to get accused of plagiarism etc..., and the professor ultimately did nothing.
My husband was pissed...rightfully so, had he failed that class he wouldn't have gotten his degree as it was the last class for him.
