Dealing with other people's procrastination (and a few tips on how to keep your feet warm)
Show Notes

Jason is wondering how long he is going to be constrained to a 25km radius as he tries to plan #epictrip2021 around Australia. Meanwhile Inger's Tesla is complaining about a cold battery. While Jason contemplates 14 weeks off work for long service leave, Inger is powering on with her PostAc work (you can find out more about the PostAc project here).

This week we conclude (for now) our 3 episode long opus on procrastination with some thoughts on managing other people's procrastination. Afterwards Inger shares a bunch of depressing research on bias in CV assessment. We finish with a very warm 2 minute tip from Inger.
