One of the things I'm doing for my new job is going through all the resources that the office has and finding ways to put them in The Internets. Some of these are quizzes and career resources, others are tips and tricks, books, and the like. The quizzes range from the Strong Interest Inventory to Meyers-Briggs (I'm an INTP. However I'm still not entirely certain about the accuracy of MBTI - I've read conflicting studies. But get this: "he or she may become overly critical and sarcastic with others." WHO, ME? NEVER.)

The one I did today is a pretty basic quiz that has you press on happy/sad faces to rate your preferences. It was only ten questions long. But for a quiz that asks "Do you like: taking and following orders?" this actually pegged me fairly accurately. But I've gotta say: LOBBYIST?? What's wrong with just saying "prostitute" ??

There were also about ten different entires for "mechanic," "gunsmith," "millwright," and then it popped up with "director." And I'm, like, wait, what? Unfortunately, nowhere did it say dictator which would have been way more accurate.

In short: not for me a career in law enforcement or early childhood education. Which I think was already fairly obvious to anybody who, you know, has ever met me.

But four in the top eleven isn't too bad...
