Few people can rub their bellies and tap their heads proficiently at the same time. How the hell do they expect to "multitask"? Multitasking is a computer feature, one that allows a single computer processor to handle tasks concurrently. It is accomplished by performing steps in succession because a single processor can only perform one step (one calculation at a time). However, it does them so rapidly that it appears that they are being performed simultaneously. Sadly, when I attempt to multitask, I forget what I was doing as I go from one step in one process to another step in a different process (like doing a crossword puzzle while cooking breakfast - breakfast will be burnt and the puzzle will be destroyed from all the erasures). As we get older, the results are aggravated...

I can multitask if one of them is a background type task. I occasionally multi task when doing the online courses and I need some video to load so I work on another course.

Multi-tasker for simple stuff. When it gets really complicated definitely a mono-tasker.
