Are you a multi-tasker?

Do you have the ability to do more than one thing at a time?

I'm usually pretty good at it, but I have made some pretty ridiculous mistakes while doing it, especially when it comes to talking on the phone with a client and sending an email at the same time. I'll either spit out the word I was typing or type something that doesn't always make sense.
Those mistakes are rare though, I can usually do 2 or 3 things at once without pause. I actually wrote most of yesterdays blog with a client sitting at my desk. (she thought I was taking copious notes)

Generally I'm pretty good at it. But mistakes have been known to happen.

On the odd occasion I mistake the beer can for the ashtray, but I blame that on drink.

I'm really good at multitasking but if I realize that some task requires my complete attention, I can be a real one-tasker, I can forget and switch off all other tasks.

Yeah. I always do this. I do different things or task on my computer. As long as I can handle it, I can manage.

I'm not sure about the definition of multi-tasker. To be frank, I'm doing several part-time jobs at the same time. But I prefer to finish one before begin with another. In fact, I usually choose to do one thing at a certain period. I'm not so good at doing several things all at once.

Multi tasker means you are doing different things at the same moment. Doing multiple task at the same time.
