I was hoping for Number 6 ;)

As per usual, I’m fashionably late to the party.  I know it’s been around for a while, but I’ve only just been working my way through the last three seasons of Battlestar Gallactica – reason?  Well because I normally hate science fiction shows and stuff set in space tends to have lots of… well lots of frackin’ aliens and concepts I find it hard to buy into.   I have no idea why some sci-fi stuff appeals and other stuff doesn’t but I loved Firefly and am really enjoying BSG atm.

I will have to learn to take Sir_Phil’s advice when he tells me which sci-fi shows to watch… .he seems to have my tastes down pat 🙂

Katee-Sackhoff-as-Kara-Thrace

You scored as Lt. Kara Thrace (Starbuck)You are the best damn Viper pilot in the fleet, so everyone else can just frack off. They need you, not the other way around. Maybe if you keep pushing people away they won’t get close, because that is scary and it hurts. Oh yes, and anyone who has a problem with you being a woman needs to just get over it.

It’s official. I’m a nutcase… and a disagreeable one at that.

I find these things fascinating even though it’s probably mostly psychobabble nonsense.  I never put much credence in the results… bit I often can’t help myself and have to fill them in anyway.  Strangely I’m rarely surprised by the offerings at the end.

You do not feel nervous in social situations, and have a good impression of what others think of you, however you feel enraged when things do not go your way. You are sensitive about being treated fairly and feel resentful and bitter if you think you are being cheated. You are not prone to spells of energetic high spirits. You tend not to express your emotions openly and are sometimes not even aware of your own feelings. You are not affected strongly by human suffering, priding yourself on making objective judgments based on reason. You are more concerned with truth and impartial justice than with mercy, however you believe that a certain amount of deception in social relationships is necessary. You are guarded in new relationships and less willing to openly reveal the whole truth about yourself. You take your time when making decisions and will deliberate on all the possible consequences and alternatives.

Guess that means I’m not cut out for number crunching or customer service occupations after all.  Which strangely enough is exactly what I was discussing with the Occupational Therapist today.  Gotta look towards retraining myself into something that
1) isn’t too sedentary
2) makes use of or builds on my current skills
3) won’t leave me brain dead from boredom.

Hmmmm… vaguely remember an occupation questionaire that went round a few months ago…. might see if I can find that.  Found it.  The top occupations Borys was deemed suitable for are listed below… strangely enough I don’t think I’ve ever worked in any of these fields.  :S
