h2>I'm a Lifer!

To you, a job is what pays the bills. You put in your hours, follow the rules, and then go home. Occasionally, you consider quitting, but then you think of how bad the job market is and you reconsider. Whatever happiness you get, you get from your life outside the workplace. Relationships, family, hobbies, and outside creative pursuits are what really matter to you. You're probably taking this test at work because you don't have anything better to do.

Talent: 38%
Lifer: 56%

Talent, evidently.

I'm a Talent!

You're a risk-taker, and you follow your passions. You're determined to take on the world and succeed on your own terms. Whether in the arts, science, engineering, business, or politics, you fearlessly express your own vision of the world. You're not afraid of a fight, and you're not afraid to bet your future on your own abilities. If you find a job boring or stifling, you're already preparing your resume. You believe in doing what you love, and you're not willing to settle for an ordinary life.

You're an intellectual, and you've worked hard to get where you are now. You're a strong believer in education, and you think many of the world's problems could be solved if people were more informed and more rational. You have no tolerance for sloppy or lazy thinking. It frustrates you when people who are ignorant or dishonest rise to positions of power. You believe that people can make a difference in the world, and you're determined to try.

Lifer: 44%
Mandarin: 46%

I'm trying to scale back on the risk taking for a little more stability lately.

[Z-man]

Ok, something definately doesn't add up:

Talent: 62%
Lifer: 21%
Mandarin: 54%

Total percent: 137%. I suspect the folks who created this test don't have a lot of mathematical talent!

[pwd72s]

Funny test...and difficult, when you're a retired goat. I'm a lifer, probably because I said I'd keep doing what I'm doing if I won the lottery...
