The four housemen of procrastination

"I got an extension.'

A deadline comes to chew up a worker.

Hourglass depicting what time really means.

'What do you mean we can't finish on time? Do you want history to say that Rome wasn't built in a day?'

'You have three days left to finish this project!' 'I'll take Halloween, thanksgiving and Christmas!'

",,,and what's more Pearson, it hasn�t gone unnoticed that you're not meeting deadlines"

"I'm listing my deadlines by due date so I can miss them in chronological order."

The Graveyard of Past Deadlines

The Fierce Urgency of Now

'It's bad enough we missed every deadline, but we're the long-range planning committee!'

'Boss, I DID seize the day, but it wouldn't hold still.'

"Remember I need your report by 2030."

Executive Asks Death To Wait

"I'm sorry we give you too much work to do in a day, but we're trying to fix that problem."

'I see, from your resume, that you have lost your last two jobs because of lateness.'

"If your payment is in the post, please ignore this threat."

'It's always April 15th here.'

'Today is the tomorrow I feared yesterday. . .'

'Oh... I can get it for you yesterday... I can get it to you once tomorrow becomes yesterday!'

'My management philosophy is simple. Get the paperwork properly filled out and submitted on time.'

The final reward for a writer... 'R.I.P. At last a deadline I can live with!'

To do - Too late

"Noah says speed up the constructing!"

'Don't worry about the company's pension plan. The way we work you, you'll be lucky to live that long!'

'. . .5. . .4. . .3. . .there's always one!'

"Yes, I know there's a deadline of this project."

"What's ticking away in your filing system?"

Watch the author miss his deadline 4 to 7

A man is chained to his pen.

"I don't know what I'm going to do...my presentation is due on Monday and I haven't even started...I'm not sure I know how to speak."

"This project is crucial guys. Time may be short but you are shorter."

"You always arrive late! Yes, but notice how I always leave early."

"That's just my agent - pay him no heed."

"You report is late!"
