Ha Ha! I, apparently, am a mastermind

Summary of Masterminds
Visionaries who put energy into achieving their goals
Prefer to work independently and dislike inefficiency
Think of themselves as logical, thorough, and bright
Values practicality and common sense above ideas and theories
(All true except the first....I'm actually pretty damn lazy)

More about Masterminds
Masterminds create a vision for the future by gathering and organising information. They then develop strategies to achieve their goals. They have a rare gift for looking at almost anything and seeing how it can be improved. These skills and the Masterminds' high standards often allow them to reach leadership positions at work.
(Again with the lazy. Although, when I work, it's often at supervisory levels)

Mastermind is the least common personality type in the UK, according to a nationwide survey.
Masterminds value independence and prefer to work on their own. Once they have decided on a course of action, Masterminds rarely change their minds, although they can be persuaded by clear reasoning by someone they respect.
(Also true. I guess respect and loyalty could go hand in hand, right?)

In situations where they can't use their talents or are unappreciated, Masterminds may cut themselves off from a group and criticize people who don't understand their plans. Under extreme stress, Masterminds may overindulge in sensory experiences like eating, shopping or watching television.
(Absolutely. And it's television. Definately television.)

Masterminds often have an unusual sense of humour, which arises from their ability to spot surprising links between seemingly unconnected facts.
(It's been commented on by others. So, yeah, I guess I have an odd sense of humor, although it doesn't seem all that odd to me.)

Mastermind Careers
Masterminds are drawn to jobs requiring logical analysis or abstract thinking common in science or technical fields.
(That's appealing, although I've never held a job that could be described like that.)
Well, that was pretty accurate in the end. I guess it's just vague enough to pass, huh? Kind of like Tarot cards and Horoscopes, I imagine.

I mean, I don't enjoy dominating the conversation, I frequently ignore the phone and I like to stick with the people I know....The test called me an Introvert. Well, damn, they hit that nail right on the head.
