Rick,

I read your personality info thoroughly. It'll help me a lot. Do you think it would be a good idea for other active users to badge their info so we could learn more of (and about) each others?

Cheers

Nice of you to say so, but it probably won't. ;D

It did help me a lot many years ago when I first did the MB test. Just the understanding there are few like me was a big help. Now I know when someone acts like they know what I'm thinking, they're simply mistaken. 8)

I've often wondered if everyone should be required to wear a badge, if not have it tattooed on their foreheads. I'm usually imagining something like people in a workplace wearing colour-coded ID tags, but this sort of badge serves the same purpose. It would help people to stop and think before acting on their normal impulse—to kill each other.

On a more practical note, I don't think my badge is going to remain long. I find it too big and loud for use as a signature. I've suggested to MyPersonality a shorter and wider alternative would work better.

An "Engineer." Who would have guessed? I wonder what type the original Nostradamus was. Some historians say he was INTP (like you). Others say he was INTJ (like me)! :o

That's about the way I'd describe it.  I took a number of similar tests in university, with very different results.  I guess time really does make fools of us all  :D

I think there's a special type for those who claim not to have one.

Then my profile saying that I'm a person

wouldn't be correct?

INTJ's are immune to people skills. 8)

So, what I learned so far is that nostra is
Quote
Computer Programmer... that may ignore standard operating procedures...
which could explain the uniqueness of PVD.

Also, I learned that rick as a
Quote
...Systems Analyst... has... specialized knowledge systems... and self-confidence,... sometimes mistaken for...
which could explain some of the great models implemented in PVD,

and that mgpw4me as a
Quote
... Computer Programmer... has... mastery of tools of any and all kinds...
and that as his urge he'll contribute to PVD, for sure.

As for me, I learned that I could do my best working for the
Quote
... Police
;)

Tried to find "immunization" reference, but wasn't successful.  :-\

This test has me confused now where I wasn't before...

I've noticed that if you are in a position of power, your people skills "improve".   Now I'm not sure if I should work on my people skills or my power politics.   ???

To me, those two were directly related!
