Reading Each Others Blogs (aka Stereotyping)

I want to preface this by saying that even if I don't think I can work with you right now, I probably can work with you quite easily ... I was just assigned to talk about both types, so if you're in the bad list, I'm sorry.  It's nothing personal.  Honest.

Three people I can work with:
Chris Carraway - He sounded like a pretty easy going, likable guy, which is easy for almost anyone to get along with.  His work ethic looked similar to mine and I also really liked the way he answered the last question with "If I grow up..."  which reminded me of my answer of being a dinosaur when I grow up.

Cabana - I've had classes with him before and worked with him quite a lot during group projects in Digital Storytelling and he is quite likable and quite easy to work with.  He seems to have a good grasp of New Media concepts in general and is quite good at brainstorming.  He also always seems to have something really good to contribute to the group which is helpful since I'm introverted and am not always the best at contributing.

Mark D. Hicks - This guy has the exact same interests as I do, including Technical Theater and watching movies.  He also is good at video which is my forte.  He just seems like a doppleganger of me and I think I could work with a doppleganger quite easily.

 Allison Schwein - She seems to have a good personality and enjoys many of the things that I also enjoy. (Some of which I didn't mention on my blog ... Whoops.)  She also seems to really like to make movies which is the main reason I got into New Media in the first place, so I think that because of our shared interests we could work together well.

Three people I don't think I can work well with (...Sorry folks...):
CTYSKLIND - This is probably a stupid reason but I inherently don't trust people who don't use their real names via the internet.  Especially when there's no "About Me" post that tells you what their name actually is.  So sorry person without a real name.

SHARSAND - ...Same deal as the person above them.  I'm sorry but it really is a bother to me.  It just seems somewhat unprofessional.  Sorry.

Meredith Caudle - Her blog just seems rather unprofessional and it's a little bothersome.  The grammar and spelling is downright wrong in some areas and it just felt off compared to many of the other blogs.  I don't think we would work well together.  Sorry.

And that one guy who doesn't really fall into a category:
Zach Stone - He seems like a really great worker and quite professional but I then read his comment about the people he wouldn't work with and it seemed rather harsh, not that that's always a bad thing, but it made me hesitant to put him in the "People I can work with" category.  So he's on here instead as a "maybe".
