Is AUTHOR wrong in the post ? POST : I'm working with a team for a lab project. Our lab proposal was due yesterday, but we asked the professor for an extension to today morning, since we were busy with exams and other coursework. Our professor was lenient enough to grant the extension, but he made a comment that he would rather have us submit a thorough and precise lab proposal than one that's rushed for the sake of completion. And during lecture, he basically said that he knew some of us would be submitting our proposals late, and that he wasn't too bothered by that.

Anyhow, we got our lab proposal finished in the evening instead. As I was working, this one member texted the group chat. She first stated that she couldn't see the shared Doc, but followed it with a "nvm." Later, she said that she wanted to help out but didn't know what was happening. Frankly, I was irritated that a) she hadn't done *anything* up to this point, and b) she couldn't figure things out on her own, so I left the text on read and continued working instead. After I finished, I told her to refer to the lab protocol and the research study our project were based on.

During the last hour or so I was working, my group members popped in and out of the Doc but didn't do anything. Eventually, they left altogether. After I finished, I waited for \~30 minutes to see if they'd add anything. Since the proposal was complete and I wasn't seeing new activity, I decided to submit our work. In hindsight, I realize the best decision would have been to message the group and ask for permission, but since we were already running late, I didn't want to wait any longer when our work was done.

After I submitted, one member pinged the group chat with a question. It wasn't anything big, but it was something we could have made clearer on the proposal (i.e., a valid revision). But now, it was past the point of revision.

So, in short:

1) I ignored a team member who asked for help because I was annoyed with her laziness and incompetence, which I attributed more to an unwilligness to look through the material for herself than not actually understanding the content.  I don't think what's on our proposal is that difficult to figure out; anyone keeping up with the class should be able to comprehend it.

2) I submitted the proposal without asking or waiting for a confirmation from my team, since they'd logged out and I was the only one working on it at the time of completion.

I understand that there's room for improvement and that I should be more cooperative in the future, but was my conduct unacceptable? AITA?
