Day 9

Teamwork is an essential part of most jobs and workforces. I'm a freelancer, but I still rely heavily on mentors who teach me about things I don't understand, or on people I outsource to who write codes, design graphics, etc. When I write, I rely on feedback from proofreaders and editors to pare down my writing to the most succinct, essential parts without drowning the reader in over-writing. Even in non-professional settings, teamwork is invaluable. Without my family pitching in and accepting some responsibilities around the house I wouldn't even be able to come to school. There's simply no way to get around working as a team. If you tried to do everything on your own, you'd fail because everything we do relies on someone, somewhere shouldering a bit of the work to enable us to perform the work we need to do.
