After tamil email of what car are you, i happened to be by chance got this other test of " are you a talent, a lifer, or a mandarin?" and guess what my answer is? :crackup:

I am a lifer! "To you, a job is what pays the bills. You put in your hours, follow the rules, and then go home. Occasionally, you consider quitting, but then you think of how bad the job market is and you reconsider. Whatever happiness you get, you get from your life outside the workplace. Relationships, family, hobbies, and outside creative pursuits are what really matter to you. You're probably taking this test at work because you don't have anything better to do."  :crackup:

this is so true, im taking this test at work and yes, bec i dont have anything better to do bear_tongue what about you guys? bear_original what are yours?

thanks to tami again. :hug:

Interesting test.  I took the test, and it says I'm a Mandarin:

Hi Ming, here's my result. It's funny that the first three results are one of each of the three choices.  bear_thumb

Talent...well that's what it said... not quite sure myself...the risk taker bit threw me a little.

You're a risk-taker, and you follow your passions. You're determined to take on the world and succeed on your own terms. Whether in the arts, science, engineering, business, or politics, you fearlessly express your own vision of the world. You're not afraid of a fight, and you're not afraid to bet your future on your own abilities. If you find a job boring or stifling, you're already preparing your resume. You believe in doing what you love, and you're not willing to settle for an ordinary life.

Hugs, Jane.  bear_thumb  bear_flower  bear_thumb

Me too Jane!  And in my case, I'd say it has me very well summed up. bear_original

Well I turned out to be a "Talent" too......I think many of us would be on this forum........bear making isn't going to provide a fortune for most of us but we pursue it for the creative satisfaction and love of it.

I think that says it all.......... bear_grin  bear_grin  bear_grin

Apparently I am a talent too....I am a risk taker ..all my life pretty much I have been self employed..never really 'worked' for anyone..always been a free spirit.
Maybe I have a talent for being unemployable!!

You're an intellectual, and you've worked hard to get where you are now. You're a strong believer in education, and you think many of the world's problems could be solved if people were more informed and more rational. You have no tolerance for sloppy or lazy thinking. It frustrates you when people who are ignorant or dishonest rise to positions of power. You believe that people can make a difference in the world, and you're determined to try.

Your scores:

Talent: 44%
Lifer: 49%
Mandarin: 54%

Looks like talent is the least of my qualities! Not a good thing. I seem to be confused between a talent and a lifer. I certainly don't consider myself an intellectual, but everything else applies to me perfectly.

Interesting.

I'm a talent as well, and it fits me quite well.  I think we'll have a lot of talents here.

Mine came out "Talent" also ...but in the movie question I just guessed because I have never seen any of those movies.   Some of the answers to the questions were not yes or no answers.....

These are fun though.

You and me both Jenny! :crackup: 

I had a fairly brief spell of paid employment (seven years) and couldn't stick with it.  I have issues accepting authority! bear_tongue

:crackup: Me too, Kerilyn, I just wanted to win the lottery and retire.  I am a lifer, and I really laughed when it said I was taking the test at work because I had nothing better to do.  This is true, I am retirement age, and I have my house on the market for sale, and as soon as it sells, I am retired and moving away from the city life to just sit and make bears all day.  My life has been on hold for a year now waiting for this house to sell, and until it does I have to work to pay for it.  But my day is a coming.  All my bear stuff is in storage so its hard to keep going. 
That test had me pegged!!

I'm a Mandarin!! (although only a few percent in it really - 62% and 59%.  It definitely looks like I'm not a Lifer - only 18%)

Hmmmm . . . don't quite know what to make of mine.  It was kind of hard to answer the questions since I've been retired from my "real" job for a long time.   

Talent:  51%
Lifer:  51%
Mandarin:  44%

Fascinating test!
I'm a talent at 75%. 
I'll take a risk over a steady pay check any day.
Call me crazy, but I strive not to be rich, but to be happy!

I'm apparently a talent too, but having drifted from job to job looking for "the grail of perfect jobs"  I always considered myself flotsam.  I had no idea what half of those questions were, I just threw a pin, so I guess its safe to say I was never gonna be a mandarin!   bear_grin
