    Alone. I can delegate but I have to work to not supervise too closely.

    Well, you know, I find that old saying to be true:  If you want something done right, do it  yourself. :)

    I drove my contractor a little nuts while he was doing my home renovation.   We did manage to become friends though.

    Alone, unless it was necessary to work as a team...by my standards. When I was teaching we would have periodic faculty meetings where we split into groups of 8 or so and we were given stupid tasks to perform as a group. Most thought them to be very tedious and few had any interest. I would usually just sit and draw stuff.

    People suck. And not in a good way.

    I have less time to think when I'm in a team. A lot of distractions, usually by complete idiots who need a good slap around the head.

    I work fine by myself and usually do OK in a team. However I work best and enjoy it most in a two-person team as long as the both of us have similar goals and work styles. It doesn't matter whether I am the lead or the follower or whether we are equals. Currently, I do volunteer work where there is one paid staff member and myself handling the job. I love how we keep each other informed and can seamlessly pick up where the other left off.

    I prefer to work alone.  When you work in a team, everyone has their own idea of how to accomplish the "mission."  You spend more time deciding on "how to do" than "doing."

  • Both. Alone when necessary or with a team when necessary.
