They've Got Personality

 

Yesterday at work, we took personality tests…and when I read the results to Ryan, he said it was almost scary how accurate mine was! It said I’m a Defender.

            Here are some paraphrases of my results:

I’m hardworking and devoted and feel a deep sense of responsibility to those around me.

I meet deadlines, uphold traditions (YES!!!!!), and often operate behind the scenes.

I’m sensitive and caring and have an eye for detail.

I’m loyal and don’t love change.

I’m meticulous to the point of perfectionism (YESS!!!!!!!) and take my responsibilities personally.

I’m supportive, reliable, and sometimes overcommitted.

Yep, Yep, and Yep!

            Ryan wanted to take the test too, so he took it last night, and it turns out we’re pretty much polar opposites. He’s 74% extraverted (which I find to be a conservative estimate) to my 83% introverted (which feels a little high to me, though I am more introverted than most realize). His type was Consul. 

He’s caring, social, and always eager to help (TRUE!!!)

He’s attentive and people-focused.

He’s generous, reliable, and hospitable.

He’s a servant who does the right thing. (YES!!!)

He’s loyal, warm, and connects well with others.

            The part that made me laugh was the part at the end, where they gave examples of people with these personality traits. I laughed because many of these I would never call similar with each other, but…are you ready?

            My personality is like: Queen Elizabeth II, Vin Diesel, Halle Berry, Kate Middleton, Anne Hathaway and…Bree Van de Kamp from Desperate Housewives. (Never would I liken Bree to Kate Middleton in personality!)

            As for Ryan…he’s like: Taylor Swift, Jennifer Garner, Steve Harvey, Jennifer Lopez, Sally Field and…Monica from Friends. (He does clean that thoroughly!)

            So there you go…we’ve got personality, and when you add us together, we have ALL the personality!
