Cleaning roles.
In our group we had a few roles that everyone had.
One person would wash dishes, another would dry and put away them, and someone would wipe down the table.

Cooking roles
while cooking we all had our own roles that we had to do. 
we had someone to go up to grab all the things we needed to make our food.
someone would mix the ingredients together to make the patties. 
someone would butter and steam the buns. and someone would cook the patties while the rest of us would cut the tomato's, grab the lettuce and star putting the spare things away. 

Problems 
We didn't really have any problems in our group because we were all doing something.

changes
Our group are pretty good with making sure everyone is doing something, we dont need any changes.

Factual or Satirical (The Onion)

What does the website look like? The Onion 
When you go to the website it looks like a legit news site. But when you start lurking more, Reading some articles are just that unbelievable. For an example ,Jeff Bezos releasing swarm of amazon drones to hunt down nudes. Quoting "Fly my Pretties", That sounds like a fake article to me.
What photos is it using?
Its using close ups on the main protagonist of the article. such as LeBron James and many more.
They are also using photos from famous people.
What headlines are they sharing?
They are trying to make things as believable as they can but they are putting to much effort into the headlines and not the article, That were i think people start to notice its fake.
Do you think its a Factual website or a Satirical website? 
In my opinion I think its a satirical website because iv heard about this site posting fake news.
