I'm retired now...but it was spot on for me.

I am in the right job, but the survey was wide of the mark. I'm good at maths, apparently. Not so that me, nor anyone else, would notice.

I couldn't make head nor tail of most of the questions. Maybe retirement is what I was destined for :wink:

That is a surprise, it says I would make a good therapist and I was one.

I was a dependable introvert like all these tests suggest I am. Had lots of them at work each time a new company took us over, 9 owners in 32 years but the site always looked after itself. Never have the right option for me, you know the style:

You take your girlfriend to a party and she gets into deep conversation with a man with one leg, do you:
a) join in with sympathetic comments about the plight of the disabled and how society doesn't look after them
b) head for the bar and get steadily drunk then look for a new girl friend
c) surreptitiously kick his crutch away so he spills his drink, falls over and looks a fool

There's never the option to not go to the party in the first place.

ISTJ "Trustee" These are dependable pillars of strength. They make good boy or girl scouts! 6% of the total population.

I never wanted to join the Scouts, gimme a good book any day when I was younger, nowadays a nice 10 to 20 mile walk in the country with my dogs. :D
Job, well I was a Computer Programmer and I'm a manager working in IT, but it does list a fair few jobs. :?
