Deadlines are pretty important in the professional world. If you miss a hard deadline, at best you end up looking sloppy and unprofessional, at worst you've lost your company a couple million and you're about to be out of a job.

I'm an absolutely fantastic employee, at least, my performance reviews and bonuses support the image. I also have absolutely terrible anxiety about mundane deadlines. Some paperwork that takes 3 minutes might be put off for an extra day or two while I spend hours day and night on my actual responsibilities. It's an issue.

Yeah, no. In some specific cases maybe... But most of the time it doesn't matter and people are constantly late or half-assing everything. The discrepancy between what I learned in and expected from school and what I actually experience in consulting is mind-bogging, really.
