QUESTION 15 OF 40

If given a choice, which work-related task would you leave for last and why?

The interviewer at Costco would like to know which tasks you tend to leave for last. Often we will move the tasks that we don't want to last in the act of procrastination. Other times, we will mindfully leave a specific responsibility for last because we feel it makes the most sense. Help the interviewer determine which personality type you are by answering this question.

"I am not a procrastinator; however, I would push the store cleaning to the end of the day if possible. It feels better to leave the store in pristine condition!"
