Hey James,

This is what I came up with. I currently work at a Bank in the Northern Virginia area and this is what they came up with. *L*

Your distinct personality, The Merchant, might be found in most of the thriving kingdoms of the time. Your overriding goal is to always be competitive, for Merchants are the deal makers. Every situation is realistically analyzed for its profit potential. A well executed deal, even one that is profitable for all participants, can be its own reward for many Merchants. On the positive side you can be logically practical, rational and realistic. On the negative side you may be rigidly dogmatic as well as unmerciful and precipitous. Interestingly, your preference is just as applicable in today's corporate kingdoms.

Guess Daddy was right, I should be an engineer!

Your distinct personality, The Engineer-Builder might be found in most of the thriving kingdoms of the time. Your overriding goal is to stick with the plan and get the job done. "If it ain't broken don't fix it." is your motto. You provide structure and stability to your world. Your procedures are predictable and dependable. Your methods are proven and tested. You offer results not surprises. On the positive side, you are practical, just, realistic, pragmatic and rational. On the negative side, you may be dogmatic, rigid, short-sighted, indecisive, unimaginative and arrogant. Interestingly, your preference is just as applicable in today's corporate kingdoms.

I'm a teacher and I was labeled a Shepherd also.

The explanation ran pretty true to home! (especially being closed-minded, manipulative and sentimentally rigid! haha)

James 05-20-2001 10:38 PM

The problem is that I tend to be very close ib different categories when doing some personality tests. Most are variations of the Myers Briggs test/Kiersey Temperment Test. And the Kiersey test is like the Myers Briggs. A lot of professional employment tests or interest tests use the same philosophy.

So I tend to score almost 50-50 on thinking/feeling and judging/perceiving and so depending on my mood am more likely to come up slightly different . . . whereas most people will test almost always the same on any given test . . unless they are trying to skew the results.

Anyway! Since I didn't post MY results . . .

The first time I tested on it I was the
Benevolent Ruler . . .

However, I have also tested as two others which are probably only different by aybe one question. I'll post because they haven't been posted before:

Number 1:The Discoverer, might be found in most of the thriving kingdoms of the time. Your overriding goal is to go where no one else has ever gone before. Regardless of the number of available natural problems to be solved, it is not unusual for you to continually challenge yourself with new situations or obstacles that you have created. You are an insatiable explorer of people, places, things and ideas. You thrive on constant change and anything new or different. On the positive side, you can be creatively rational as well as open minded and just. On the negative side, you might be an impractical and indecisive procrastinator. Interestingly, your preference is just as applicable in today's corporate kingdoms.

Number 2 . . .The Prime Minister might be found in most of the thriving kingdoms of the time. You are a strategist who pursues the most efficient and logical path toward the realization of the goal that you perceive or visualize. You will often only associate with those people who can assist you in the implementation of your plan. Inept assistants may be immediately discarded as excess baggage. To do otherwise could be seen as inefficient and illogical. On the positive side, you can be rationally idealistic and analytically ideological. You can be a bold decision maker and risk taker who can move society ahead by years instead of minutes. On the negative side, you may be unmerciful, impatient, arrogant, impetuous and impulsive. Interestingly, your preference is just as applicable in today's corporate kingdoms.

The Benevolent Ruler

------------------
Faced with the Divine, I was asked; "What one gift do you seek?"
I answered ever so meekly; "I seek Honor, Truth, Integrity, and Wisdom, yet those are four. How am I to choose?"
The answer came as a pounding whisper; "The four you seek are but one. I grant thee Compassion; for without it the four make none."

Kinda like my origninal type too though (dreamer-minstrel). Except that I think I am more like a dreamer-minstrel, since I'm very idealistic/dreamy/open-minded, etc. http://www.greekchat.com/forums/ubb/biggrin.gif I'm not rigid/practical/realistic, etc.... http://www.greekchat.com/forums/ubb/biggrin.gif

On the positive side you are merciful, sympathetic, helpful, giving and heroic. On the negative side you may be impulsively decisive, sentimental and misdirected.

I am usually an INFJ/INTJ, but recently I've been getting that ENTP thing, go figure. Either way, these tests point me towards academia, which is good since I'm in a PhD program, and I'm headed towards university-level instruction. I also get "Healer" tags as well.

I feel pretty good about my path, seems I'm not straying from my calling...

Big surprise, Black Knight! (Doesn't mean I am a bad guy though http://www.greekchat.com/forums/ubb/wink.gif ) Considering that I am a business and computer systems consultant where issues are logically based on best, fastest, cheapest, and maximizing profit it does fit.

Your distinct personality, The Black Knight, might be found in most of the thriving kingdoms of the time. Your overriding goal is to win. You approach each task or situation as a contest to be won strategically and efficiently. Because you can control your feelings, it is not unusual for you to charm, as well as successfully delegate tasks and responsibilities to the more emotional types. You are often concerned with what's in it for you. You seldom involve yourself in activities where you can not foresee a reward for your investment or effort.
