Introvert, Sensor, Thinker, Perceiver (ISTP)
ISTPs represent between 4 and 6% of the U.S. population
ISTPs are typically quiet, realistic, independent, and highly pragmatic people and come across as objective, even-tempered and unflappable in almost all situations. ISTPs, while often people of few words, they do enjoy joking around with people they know fairly well. Direct, honest, and down-to-earth, ISTP’s typically prefer to skip a lot of theoretical analysis or future predictions in favor of getting right to the bottom line and the relevant facts and figures. They can be veritable storehouses of information on things they know well and understand. Because they are realists, they are able to capitalize well on available resources, which make them practical, with a good sense of timing. ISTPs have an innate understanding of how mechanical things work and are usually skilled at using tools. They tend to make logical and private decisions, stating things clearly and directly, just as they see them. VERY GOOD ASSESSMENT OF ME.
Your work-related strengths may include:
Ability to bring order to confusing data and to recognizable facts (very true)
Aptitude for working alone or alongside others you respect (very true)
Ability to stay calm and cool in a crisis or under pressure (bang on!)
Your work-related weaknesses may include:
Difficulty seeing the long-term consequences of actions (not true at all)
Lack of interest in verbal communications, especially superficial conversations (again, way off the mark)
Dislike of advance preparation; you have trouble organizing your time (totally wrong)
Supposedly, I'm not even close in my career choice....
