Jung Test

Okay, you may or may not know,....Carl G. Jung (1875-1961), is virtually the father of Analytical Psychology. Jung developed a system to test and determine personality types. He also developed a code of four letters that defined your personality type based on the results of your test. He also compared results with all of the other results to set up basic personality types across the spectrum of people he tested as a segment of society as a whole. This definition is very abbreviated and you can search him if you wish to find out more. You can also Google to find many sites that you can take the tests,..some are free some are not. The best site for a comprehensive list of personality, IQ, relationship, and compatibility tests is HERE. Its free, but does require registration. They do compare your results against those of others, pretty neat stuff....
So the other night I took the Jung test and Enneagrams,.....below are my reults....I match 4.3% of the population ( I match approxiamately 12 million of 280 million people),.....No wonder, gees ODD MAN OUT! It may also go a long way to prove my theory that (to me) only about 10% of the population is worth dealing with....(I know I know,...arrogant ass, but thats not true) So I will explain; I figure that only about 10% of the total population is even worth dealing. Having been is sales, Law Enforcement, and various other jobs....I have met or dealt with a reasonably high amount of people, and to some, I am sure I am outside of their 10%. I am useless to them. The way I see this is that people serve three purposes to you. The first is family and friends,..a close circle and can be infinite in size. Second are those that have something to offer you or you them,..they may still be outsuide your 10%, but they aren't useless they have something to offer,..or you have something to offer them. The third,..well this is the rest,...they serve only to get in the way, slow you down, cause you problems, or prevent you from being purposeful in their own goal of being purposeful....these are the people you flip off on the highway; that take forever at the checkout line; do 14 transactions at the ATM, when all you want to do is get cash out, they are trying to get a Mortgage, check thier auntie's account, get some money for the dude in the back seat,...and check their balances over and over and over again. All of you know what I am talking about. Now my numbers are by no way a science,..its a generalization..but the fact reamains,..that only a small portion of the populace is even worth dealing with.......and I too, like you, fall within and outside of those boundaries with others.
I have a date with Cubana this Saturday,..she has a pyschology degree, so I decided to send my results to her prior....to our date. She is going to tell me what it all means. Thankfully,..she is still going out with me and actually said very impressive. I was waiting on the "Dave, we need to really talk,....do you own any guns?" But, she was actually impressed with it and implied that her and I were very compatible in the scheme of things....Here are my results....anyone who knows what this stuff means I welcome the comments, tell me what you think or what it means...I am very interested in this.
