Lack of Concentration / Indecision
John finds himself unable to make decisions much of the time, while Andy finds it extremely difficult to concentrate at all. Lorna has so much trouble concentrating that she will sit mindlessly watching TV for hours.

Tina doesn't show any signs of poor concentration or indecisiveness.

Lack of focus and trouble making decisions can become a serious issue. For both John and Andy, their jobs could be in jeopardy.
