ATTACK OF THE VEGGIES...

whew - what a day - ;lol...i found a job search page that was so intense - first it did a personality test (yes i have one), than it takes your traites and your job history, combines them and says this is where your strengths are (and weaknesses)...here are some of my traits that i had forgotten about...(this took over 5 hours to complete)

ESTJ (Extravert, Sensor, Thinker, Judger)

People of this type tend to be: energetic, friendly, and outspoken; productive, organized and efficient; realistic and sensible, but often skeptical about new or untested ideas; honest and direct to the point of bluntness; quick decision makers, opinionated, traditional, serious, and accountable. The most important thing to ESTJs is doing the right thing, and being in charge.

Working Activities Details
I'm really into both task clarity and uncertainty, and want to balance my time between them.

I really enjoy challenging people, and although I'm comfortable with promoting harmony as well, I would rather spend the majority of my time challenging people.

I love both team activities and individual work, and want to balance my time between them.

I really like being self-directed, and although I'm okay with receiving guidance as well, I would rather spend the majority of my time being independent.

I love thinking practically, and although I'm comfortable with thinking conceptually as well, I would rather spend the majority of my time working on practical tasks.

I love fact based decision-making, and although I like it more than going on intuition, I still want to spend some time on both.

I love critical analysis and I dislike being accepting, but I still want to balance my time between them.

I love both exploration and established processes, and want to balance my time between them.

I'm really into providing guidance, and although I enjoy leaving others to their own devices as well, I would rather spend the majority of my time guiding others.

I enjoy moving quickly, and although I'm okay with acting with complete information as well, I would rather spend the majority of my time just getting the job done.

I enjoy being publicly acknowledged, and although I like it much more than modesty, I still want to spend some time on both.

I love being accountable, and although I'm okay with being carefree as well, I would rather spend most of my time holding a lot of responsibility.

INFO - i knew you would not think fasting was a bad thing and i did not post my weight because i did not have a difference - after 1 1/2 days - no change...so today i ate a handful of cereal (to stay off a headache) and a bottle of water...see what tomorrow am brings...

Meyers Briggs/ I work in an employment centre and we offer these workshops all the time. Very interesting stuff. All the participates really enjoy this workshop. We also tie it in with colors which is similar to True Colors but called personality dimensions.

chatty - do you all have locations all over...or a website?

LOL! veggies: I'm certainly glad that you have a personality (or else you may not have been able to take the test). They missed one of your most obvious "traits:" Excellent Cook. :-) What about Kind, and Feminine, and Warm? They missed all those, not a good test at all (lol). I sounds like you did quite well on this five hour test! Horrible imho. Have a good weekend my friend. I'm glad to see you with cathy.

The locations are in Canada and all centres offer different workshops. The website for our location is www.jobgym.com You can check it out however there isn't that kind of information listed there but it will give you an idea of what we do. Were you interested in something in particular?

Oh also that workshop that encompasses what you did is 3 full days because every area of that is explained and related to not only personality but job search and how it relates to you as an individual. We like to say we are all plaid. lol
