And I'm not as extraverted as that. It's all about the way the questions are phrased. It's certainly not the best Myers-Briggs test I've ever seen.
 
ISFJ
Introvert(56%) Sensing(1%) Feeling(12%) Judging(1%)
You have moderate preference of Introversion over Extraversion (56%)
You have marginal or no preference of Sensing over Intuition (1%)
You have slight preference of Feeling over Thinking (12%)
You have marginal or no preference of Judging over Perceiving (1%)
 
ESTJ
Extravert(44%) Sensing(12%) Thinking(12%) Judging(44%)

You have moderate preference of Extraversion over Introversion (44%)
You have slight preference of Sensing over Intuition (12%)

Aww it's JUNGIAN, but the sun has started shining through my window where the computer faces and cannot see.. CUNT
 
ENFJ
Extravert(44%) iNtuitive(50%) Feeling(25%) Judging(44%)

You have moderate preference of Extraversion over Introversion (44%)
You have moderate preference of Intuition over Sensing (50%)
You have moderate preference of Feeling over Thinking (25%)
You have moderate preference of Judging over Perceiving (44%)

Hmm, a lot of the questions could have gone either way though. The description doesn't sound like me at ALL! "Tremendous charisma", "phenomenal interpersonal skills and unique salesmanship"? My CLUNGE :D And I would rather DIE than work in SALES or TEACHING.

Oh it remembers your answers if you click back. I'm going to change the ambiguous ones and see what happens.
 
See even the first one, "You are almost never late for your appointments". I am regularly ONE or TWO minutes late but never like TEN or anything. What do I put? Stupid test.
 
"You are a person somewhat reserved and distant in communication" - depends how well I know the person and how many ciders I have had.
 
Right if I redo it I get INFJ, which sounds more realistic...

"INFJs are champions of the oppressed and downtrodden. They often are found in the wake of an emergency, rescuing those who are in acute distress. INFJs may fantasize about getting revenge on those who victimize the defenseless. The concept of 'poetic justice' is appealing to the INFJ." YEAH :D
 
ENFP

Extravert(1%) iNtuitive(12%) Feeling(38%) Perceiving(22)%

You have marginal or no preference of Extraversion over Introversion (1%)
You have slight preference of Intuition over Sensing (12%)
You have moderate preference of Feeling over Thinking (38%)
You have slight preference of Perceiving over Judging (22%)
 
oh completely wrong. I'm an INTJ :D And in reading the descriptions, it's spot on.

I think it's because I always go into thinking I'm a ISFP, but come out INTJ, no matter how hard I try!
 
I always find it difficult to answer the questions sometimes. I'm often so torn by "yeah but what if" scenarios

for instance, I much prefer small groups to large crowds, but not because I'm shy and nervous and introverted, but because I just find people generally to be STUPID AND ANNOYING
 
I always think I ought to get something that says I am all about LOGIC and REASONING, but it never seems to come out that way. Still if it's all the same to these psychologist types I will stick with my geeky programming job rather than going to become a nurse THANKS.
 
I met another stats programmer on Saturday. He only earns £27k. But he has only just started out post-masters.
 
I'm always a bit wary of broad personality descriptors, because it's so easy to read what you like into them (i.e. OMG I am SUCH a classic Pisces!)

But these descriptions of INFP definitely resonate strongly with me.

INFPs do not like conflict, and go to great lengths to avoid it. If they must face it, they will always approach it from the perspective of their feelings. In conflict situations, INFPs place little importance on who is right and who is wrong. They focus on the way that the conflict makes them feel, and indeed don't really care whether or not they're right. They don't want to feel badly. This trait sometimes makes them appear irrational and illogical in conflict situations. On the other hand, INFPs make very good mediators, and are typically good at solving other people's conflicts, because they intuitively understand people's perspectives and feelings, and genuinely want to help them.

INFPs do not like to deal with hard facts and logic. Their focus on their feelings and the Human Condition makes it difficult for them to deal with impersonal judgment. They don't understand or believe in the validity of impersonal judgment, which makes them naturally rather ineffective at using it. Most INFPs will avoid impersonal analysis, although some have developed this ability and are able to be quite logical. Under stress, it's not uncommon for INFPs to mis-use hard logic in the heat of anger, throwing out fact after (often inaccurate) fact in an emotional outburst.

INFPs are usually talented writers. They may be awkard and uncomfortable with expressing themselves verbally, but have a wonderful ability to define and express what they're feeling on paper. INFPs also appear frequently in social service professions, such as counselling or teaching. They are at their best in situations where they're working towards the public good, and in which they don't need to use hard logic.

Ooh :david: where's he working? He just needs to get a couple of years experience under his belt and then he can go contracting for the big bucks :disco: Unless he's into CAREER PROGRESSION and all that bollocks instead.

Yeah, I said that to him. I didn't ask where but it was pharmaceutical based. I gave your salary a mention :basil: He sounded pretty clued up.

God I need a new job :(
 
£27k is a pretty good starting salary tbh. I started on £19k! But that was 11 years ago and in Norfolk and I didn't have a Masters.

I had this crazy idea (or not so crazy) to make this list of DIVA DEMANDS come review time in November. If (when) they're NOT MET, RESIGN the moment my (if any) bonus is paid into my bank, go travelling for 6 months and start a masters in something financial maths / stats related in September.

But the lack of cash for 18 months and the fact I might not get a job after the masters is TROUBLING ME.

I'm not even joking when I say this, I've spent the past year or so on SKYSCANNER looking at flights to TUVALU, KYRGYZSTAN and the CENTRAL AFRICAN REPUBLIC.

I need to look more into what job I can get with which masters to make a more informed choice but I am considering it as an MSc in Quant Finance (for example) is £23k!

Ok just did this:

ESFP



Extravert(89%) Sensing(1%) Feeling(62%) Perceiving(11)%
  • You have strong preference of Extraversion over Introversion (89%)
  • You have marginal or no preference of Sensing over Intuition (1%)
  • You have distinctive preference of Feeling over Thinking (62%)
  • You have slight preference of Perceiving over Judging (11%)
ESFPs live in the world of people possibilties. They love people and new experiences. They are lively and fun, and enjoy being the center of attention. They live in the here-and-now, and relish excitement and drama in their lives.

ESFPs have very strong inter-personal skills, and may find themselves in the role of the peacemaker frequently. Since they make decisions by using their personal values, they are usually very sympathetic and concerned for other people's well-being. They're usually quite generous and warm. They are very observant about other people, and seem to sense what is wrong with someone before others might, responding warmly with a solution to a practical need. They might not be the best advice-givers in the world, because they dislike theory and future-planning, but they are great for giving practical care.

ESFP is definitely a spontaneous, optimistic individual. They love to have fun. If the ESFP has not developed their Thinking side by giving consideration to rational thought processing, they tend to become over-indulgent, and place more importance on immediate sensation and gratification than on their duties and obligations. They may also avoid looking at long-term consequences of their actions.

For the ESFP, the entire world is a stage. They love to be the center of attention and perform for people. They're constantly putting on a show for others to entertain them and make them happy. They enjoy stimulating other people's senses, and are extremely good at it. They would love nothing more than for life to be a continual party, in which they play the role of the fun-loving host.

ESFPs love people, and everybody loves an ESFP. One of their greatest gifts is their general acceptance of everyone. They are upbeat and enthusiastic, and genuinely like almost everybody. An ESFP is unfailingly warm and generous with their friends, and they generally treat everyone as a friend. However, once crosesed, an ESFP is likely to make a very strong and stubborn judgment against the person who crossed them. They are capable of deep dislike in such a situation.

ESFPs are likely to be very practical, although they hate structure and routine. They like to "go with the flow", trusting in their ability to improvise in any situation presented to them. They learn best with "hands-on" experience, rather than by studying a book. They're uncomfortable with theory. If an ESFP hasn't developed their intuitive side, they may tend to avoid situations which involve a lot of theoretical thinking, or which are complex and ambiguous. For this reason, an ESFP may have difficulty in school. On the other hand, the ESFP does extremely well in situations where they're allowed to learn by interacting with others, or in which they "learn by doing".

The ESFP is a great team player. He or she is not likely to create any problems or fuss, and is likely to create the most fun environment possible for getting the task done. ESFPs will do best in careers in which they are able to use their excellent people skills, along with their abilities to meld ideas into structured formats. Since they are fast-paced individuals who like new experiences, they should choose careers which offer or require a lot of diversity, as well as people skills.

The ESFP has a tremendous love for life, and knows how to have fun. They like to bring others along on their fun-rides, and are typically a lot of fun to be with. They're flexible, adaptable, genuinely interested in people, and usually kind-hearted. They have a special ability to get a lot of fun out of life, but they need to watch out for the pitfalls associated with living entirely in the moment.

Fucking hell at that extrovert score! :D

I'm a terrible judge of character of myself though, so not sure how accurate that is.

Oh, me too. But I feel that the amount of possible variants available means that it's likely to throw up at least a few accuracies.
 
I'm not really an extrovert at all, or if I am it's seriously only begun to spring up in the last year or so. I've always been quiet and nervous about meeting new people. going away has been a revelation though, people keep telling me how social I am and I've actually had to worry about speaking too much at times.

it's weird.
 
I don't see myself as an introvert but I suppose on paper that's exactly what I am. On one side of the coin I enjoy parties and socializing but I enjoy it with a small group of people who I've let my guard down to. On the other side of the coin I'm a quiet loner..

I don't mind being an introvert though if that's what I am! From experience I've found that people who are 'loud' and 'a good laugh' tend to be really vile underneath the surface.
 
Really? You must know a very limited amount of loud people. Some of the absolute greatest people I know are the most social. Likewise with some of the quieter ones, it goes both ways.

I will say that a lot of the more outgoing and outwardly confident people I've gotten friendly with are also the ones with the biggest insecurities, although maybe that's just because it's such a surprise when you realise it.

I know lots of loud people but don't socialize with many as most of my friends are quite mellow. Not necessarily quiet or shy, just mellow. I've had a few LOUDMOUTH friends in the past and they turned out to be so utterly bitchy and vile it was unreal. I agree with you about louder people tending to be quite insecure too, I've often found that 'big personalities' tend to be hiding 'big insecurities'.
 
If anything I feel like people have a tendency to write off the louder ones and automatically brand them as obnoxious or loud mouthed or whatever, when in reality if you make the effort to have a conversation with them you'll find that they're absolutely lovely. I've gotten that with a lot with some people I know. Other friends will bitch about them and call them attention seekers and whatever else but if you actually know them and aren't just riding on an opinion that you've based upon what you see of them on a drunken night out then you'll find that they're rarely like that at all.

I'm not saying that all extroverts are horrors, plainly that the LOUD people that I became close to turned out to be.

I didn't realise you had the right to label another persons experience as 'rubbish'

That's absolutely fine and i'm not necessarily saying that being loud in tone makes a person horrible, I was just speaking from experience. I am quiet, through choice, not because I'm insecure. I'm always under the impression that louder people view me as boring and therefore don't tend to talk to me.
 
People have different ways of approaching people. Just because you're loud in social situations doesn't mean you're going to have an easy time communicating immediately with every single person, and sometimes if a person's quiet it can make it harder for people to open up with you. I say that from experience (that is, experience as the quiet person) and most of the time I wouldn't blame it at all on the other guy or girl.

That said I don't know you and if all the louder people you know have really turned out to be horrible then so be it.
