Calhunter,
You are between an Analyzer and an Achiever...
You like working mainly by yourself..you like order and like being in control. You don't do well with gabbers..You are driven internally and can be trusted to always do a very good job.
Fears..you don't like your environment messed with or threatened..
I'm also an Achiever..you work well with other Achievers and Analylers.
The Analyzers are a little more intellectual than Achievers ..They need facts and lots of details before they beleive anything.Honestly, I'm not smart enough to be an Analyzer.

WESTVIRGINIA CRITTER,
You are a solid analyzer..you must be a boss of somekind...You do well alone and LOVE order,,you do not like to be critisized..You can handle BIG projects and pay attention to the smallest of details..You work well with Achievers and other Analyzers.

Alex the Hawk,
Not really ..but it does built unity and a team spirit as we learn the weaknesses and strenghs that one another have..theh it's esay to understand and put up with certain querks..knowing that there is different kinds of personalities than the ones we have..It's been very helpful learning about me..I'm very difficult to work with..[&o]
Beehunter,
Your a very well rounded person.Must have a lot of people who like you..You enjoy a good laugh[8D]yet a very caring hard working individual...
Basically just a good ole well rounded individual..
It's only fair to build a team that I bear my true self..
I'm a strong Achiever meaning..
I'm not a people person, I work hard and do the job right..if I'm your boss I expect you to do your part right and I have no time for chit chat..I don't like losing control of my environment...BOOM BOX neighbors drive me NUTS...[:-]My classroom is structure .structure ..structure..I'm not an intellectual .As a Christian I realize many of these are not good..so I don't drink alot of coffee....It's a job for me to chill out...and striking out fishing and hunting really bums me out...Hopefully God's love can make me into a better person.
My boss loves me..I got the highest job performance report card in the school..but my co-workers...different story.
