Eventually I figure...|||I'm pretty good with my hands.  I have friends who are much more artistically inclined and have better imaginations than I do.  But from a practical perspective there isn't a lot I can't make or...|||I still suffer from social anxiety.  I have to resolve myself to accept a certain degree of socialization.  But once I hit my limit I need to get away.  For instance, a few weeks ago my wife and I...|||I met a (confirmed) ENFP for the first time last year.  He was a new college grad who started working at my company.  One day I overheard him talking about photography and stopped by his cubicle to...|||Back at you!

We re are similar in that we both use introverted intuition as our primary...|||Pretty much describes the American political system.|||385762|||It's more about effort to me.  If someone lacks the ability to see things my way, it's not a deal breaker.  I try to remember that as an Intuitive I tend to see things uniquely abstractly.  And most...|||Strangely enough, I find young people often have more optimistic and refreshing ideas, while older people tend to be more inflexible and set in their ways.  Plus I've always had a teacher/mentor...|||That's how I was when I was younger.  My sister was 6 years older, and I was more at ease with her friends than people my own age.   But I'm pushing 40 and my best friends now tend to be younger than...|||355562|||Cut contact.  This won't end well otherwise.|||What I expect from my employees:  • Take initiative.  I'm willing to help develop talent.  But a big part of it is not waiting for someone to tell you what you know needs to be done.   • Look for...|||Thats pretty accurate.

If he's that stuck on his own opinion, then bringing him down a peg or two wouldn't be the worst thing.  I went through that...|||I guess I'm lucky working where I do.  We're flush with INTJs, so I deal with them all the time.  I even shared a cubicle with one for five years and sat within spitting distance of another.  It's...|||Can't get this out of my head now.

One of them asked how much I made.

But she was also batshit crazy.|||I share a lot of those traits: need for stability, traditionalism, pragmatic goals for life, respectful and kind to subordinates.   Remember, MBTI is about how you take in and process information. ...|||I have to go through periodic background checks at work, and the hardest part is naming someone who knows me at my place of residence.

I think that may be one area where the two types see eye to eye.  ISFJs also tend to work...|||Don't know why this made me chuckle, but it did.|||I've found the opposite to be true.  I'm almost always shocked to find that people think more highly of me than I do of myself. In other words, I'm much harsher on myself than others are.   Most...|||My mom is an ISFJ.  That type is one of the most common, so you find them all over the place.  I don't have any particular gripes against them save for their inability to get me.

After not hearing anything for the past week and a half, I got a call today.  They offered me one of the positions.  Feels pretty damn good. (Sorry for the non-vent.

Back when I was younger I had people do that just because they thought it was funny to try to get a reaction out of the outcast.|||I haven't had much luck with that (not that there have been that many times).
