SERIOUSLY, I can't handle all the lack of context and specificity in the questions. FACT: I recently failed out of a personality test to be hired at JC Penney as a sales person, so I totally get crazy about which... answer... really... applies! I guess mixing that with "which answer do they want to hear? and are any of the answers supposed to show that I'm just faking?" doomed me.

The other thing I hate about being asked questions about myself is -- they ask you "which do you value?" And I'm stuck thinking, uhh, which one do I end up doing, or which one do I VALUE? Or even worse, which one do I think I am, when I'm really that other one? I honestly don't see how people get anywhere with those tests! :)

Haha, even with the enneagram, I was introduced to it by someone who'd done a lot more reading on it. She's tried to type a bunch of people, so she was really surprised when I really couldn't fit into just one, or one and its wing (5 is not 1's wing). IDK, maybe I'm fooling myself and in another ten years I'll know which one is more accurate.
