I read that too, and again, I think we ALL slack at work sometimes. Sometimes it's becuz we genuinely feel like crap and are ill but are forced (or force ourselves) to meet obligations. And sometimes we just aren't in the mood. Some days I don't really wake up until after lunch. :lol: The rest of the morning I'm sluggishly functioning in zombie-mode or autopilot. Would it be fair to make wild assumptions about my lifestyle becuz of that? Of course not. People tend to forget Michael was human. He was a single parent of 3 kids and at certain times may have wanted to be focusing on one thing when the order of the day dictated that he had to focus on something else...something he just couldn't get into on that day. It happens to everybody.
Totally agree. And again, the man was human. If he was lazy 15, 20, or 30% of the time, who here is 100% everyday? I sometimes think ppl expected Michael to be happy and shiny and "ON" every day of his life. And, imho, it's unfair to hold anyone up to that kind of expectation. It's just not possible. Everybody has ish days where they just don't want to bothered or do things...even things they are supposed to do and are obligated to do. And there doesn't have to be a reason why they feel that way. It's just an off day or week. No one knows what all was going on in Michael's life when they weren't around him which could have had an effect on him and his moods. Many things affect a person's moods besides drugs. Because fans and some folks weren't privy to those parts of his day doesn't mean those issues couldn't have existed...hypothetically speaking, of course.
