Many do not think that big problems can happen with procrastination. Well, depending on the situation this is not always the case as seen in the Case Study that has been analyzed. When a man named Carl Robins decides to procrastinate in getting all things done for the New Hires, he finds out exactly what can happen when one procrastinates.

According to University of Phoenix  Case Study for Student Analysis, All new hires were supposed to be working by July, with the new hire orientation on June 15. While this is all fine and well things did not run how they were planned. Although Mr. Robins was contacted by Mrs. Monica Carrolls on May 15, to make sure that “all paperwork, including the training schedule, orientation, manuals, policy booklets, physicals, drug tests, and a host of other issues” (University of Phoenix, , p. 1)., were completed and ready to go, things did not go as planned. Mr. Robins assured Mrs. Carrolls that things would be ready to go on time, and that she need not worry about a thing, but when the time came he found that most of the paperwork was not finished, or even missing he began to panic. He also went to check out the training room to find that it had been rented for the complete month of April, which would prove to be a problem since the new hire orientation was to be held on April 15th.

When a person takes on a position of importance like Mr. Robins has, he is “the new campus recruiter for ABC, Inc.” (University of Phoenix, , p. 1). This person needs to make sure that all things are in order and when a deadline is given that things will be done by the time the deadline is up. Many people depend on this one person to make sure that things are in order and straightened out so that things can get rolling. If a person cannot handle the pressure to make sure that things get done for many other people then this kind of position should be given to someone who will not burst under pressure.

According to Jacobs, Hyman  (n.d.),  You could run out of time. Any time there’s a hard deadline – which is just about always in college courses – you run the risk of missing the deadline if you keep putting off the work. And, with professors unwilling to give extensions except in very special circumstances, you could be setting yourself up for a grade penalty – often as much as one-third to one-half a grade a day – if you’re late getting the work in. Big risk (1st bullet). This bullet is about college courses but the same applies to an employee and employer. If the words grades are exchanged for pay, it reads a lot of this: Anytime there’s a hard deadline- which is just about always in management work- you run the risk of missing the deadline if you keep putting off the work. And, with bosses unwilling to give extensions except in very special circumstances, you could be setting yourself up for a pay penalty or warning- if you’re late getting the work in. Big risk (Jacobs, Hyman, n.d.). So it is better be finished with work before it needs to be done so there is some room to play.
