8.
 A friend introduces you to someone new you
 a.
 prove that you are a better person by saying something witty or
 clever that lets them know your friend is
 paying attention to you right now, not them.
 if the new person is worth knowing
 they'll do effort to get to know you
 b.
 greet him or her warmly,
 introduce yourself and ask an open ended question
 such as what do you do for a living or where do you live
 You;re prepared to actually listen to the answer and
 will resume judgment until you get to know the person better.
 Or c.
 mumble hello and then slink off and search for a
 friend whose not talking to someone you don't know.
 Whoever the new person is they
 wouldn't want to get to know you anyway.
 9.
 You walk in to your house and you're greeted by an aweful stinch.
 the refrigerator is unplug and everything in it is spoiled.
 you
 immediately assumed someone is screwing around
 in it and launch an investigation to find a culprit
 first plug it back in to find out if it still works and try to figure
 out what happened if someone is responsible
 for unplugging it, they can help you clean it out.
 In any case, you'll do what's necessary to correct the problem or
 decide you must have done something wrong and now it's coming back to
 hunt you, you grumbled on to your breath as you cleaned up ref
 and wonder why things like this always have to happened to you
 10.
 your supervisor calls you in the office to compliment you
 on the tremendous job you're doing on your new project.,you:
 thank him all the while thinking all this time you notice
 how great you are maybe now you'll get the respect you deserve.
 are sincerely flattered then tell him so.
 you also ask if there's anything you could be doing better.
 Or c.
 insist that you're really not doing all that well and try
 to hurry along so you can escape, you don't deserve praise
 11.
 You have to talk to your boss about a recent event that is
 affecting the way you and your coworkers perform her job, you:
 a.
 act as though you and your boss are best buddies and demand that you
 do something to fix the problem,
 after all you could be running the show just as
 simple as her and you probably do a better job.
 b.
 approach the matter professionally and
 with confidence that a solution can be found.
 you're offering a suggest issue that might correct the
 problem and you ask if she has any idea about what should be done
 Or, c.
 would never presume to talk to your boss.
 there is a reason why she's the boss and you're not,
 you might send her an anonymous email or
 ask one of your coworkers to talk to her.
 12.
 This weekend you have a 100 little projects at home that
 have to be tackled and you're feeling a bit overwhelmed, you
 a.
 attacked several things at once starting with the easiest ones you
 might not manage to finish any of them but you could always insist
 that someone else pitch in because
 you have more important things to do
 b.
 decide which project need to be completed first and take them all one
 at a time by taking things step by step,
 you will finish what needs to be done.
 If anyone else is available at home you'll ask them to help out.
 c.
 be maundy and fortunate twist of fate that ruined your weekend.
 there;s no way you will be able to finish anything,
 you don't ask anyone else for help since they have better things
 to do than perform favors for you and you wouldn't want be a bother
 13.
 the opportunity arises for you to pursue your dream job but it
 would mean leaving your current stable position right away you
 a.
 drop everything and go for it, who needs a safety net
 b.
 weigh your options and plan up what
 you'll do if opportunity falls through.
 if you have a spouse you discuss the
 decision with them and create a back up plan.
 if it's possible you'll find a way to make it work
 or, c: stay right where you are.
 why risk disappointment, you just know it won't work out.
 14.
 you have 5 minutes to get to an appointment and you're
 stock in a seemingly endless traffic jam at a dead stop, you
 a.
 curse, fume and honk your horn repeatedly,
 don't these people realize you're in a hurry
 b.
 are frustrated but you know there is not much that you can do to
 change the situation, if you have a cellphone,
 you'll call and let them know you're a little late.
 you use the unexpected time to relax and listen
 to your favorite radio station or just to think, or
 c.
 want to die,
 things like these always happen to you, it's just isn't fair.
 you;re so worried about being late and there's no way
 you'll be able to relax until you're out of this mess.
 15.
 a co-worker reviews one of your project and tells you few
 things that are unpleasant but they are valid points, you:
 a.
 thank him through clenched teeth and
 insist that you know what you're doing.
 he has a lot of nerves in criticizing your
 work and his opinions don't really matter anyway
 b.
 are grateful for the opportunity to improve your work you thank him
 for his insights and go back over the project
 with the suggestions in mind before turning it in
 c.
 give up, you couldn't do anything right.
 maybe your coworker should have been in charge of this project
 instead of you,
 you'll just turn it in and hope you don't get fired for incompetence.
 Results tally up all your a,
 b and c answers to find out where
 you rate on that self esteem deep stick.
 Mostly a, put down that mirror narcissist your tank overflow of you
 may not be aware of it but you
 have far more confidence than you need.
 While confidence is a good trait to possess too much of
 it can make you appear arrogant, rude or unapproachable.
 try to think more of other's feelings and you'll get much further.
 mostly b, join the circus, you have a perfect balance.
 You have a healthy level of empathy tampered with concern for others.
 You're probably the life of the party or the person everyone come
 through for help and glad to give it when you
 can, but you know you need time for yourself.
 Mostly c, if you could dig any deeper you'll end up in china.
 You're a few chords low where you could use a self esteem top off you
 may think you can't do anything right but
 with a little confidence and positive thinking.
