I've re-taken the Test and I'm an ESTJ
Extroverted = 11%
Sensing = 12%
Thinking = 50%
Judging = 22%
Here's the ESTJ profile that's written by D. Kerisey:
Supervisor Guardians are squarley on the side of rules and procedures, and they can be quite serious about seeing to it that others toe the mark--or else face the consequenses. They do not hesitate to give their stamp of approval, nor do they withhold their dirrections or suggestions for improvement. Like seasoned, stawalrt umpires, Supervisors will set their jaw and make the call on anyone who steps up to bat. They even feel obligated to to so so, and they're sometimes suprised when others don't feel grateful for being set straight.
Compromising at least ten percent of the population, Supervisors go by experience and that what counts, not speculation and experimentation, and certianly not fantasy. They keep their feet firmly on the ground and make sure that those under their supervision do the same, whether employee, subordinate, offspring or spouse. If others wish to fool around and daydream, fine, as long as they do it on their own time--which means after the job is done. But if they fritter away their time while on duty, they should not be suprised when the Supervisor calls them on the carpet. The top sergent will not put up with such nonsense.
Supervisors are geragous and civil-minded, and are usually key players of their commiunity. They are generous with their time and energy and, very often belong to a variety of groups, supporting them through steady attendance, but also taking a vocal leadership role. Indeed, membership groups of all kinds attract Supervisors like magnets, perhaps because membership satisfies in some degree their need to maintain the stability of social institutions. Like all Guardians, Supervisors worry a great deal about society falling apart, morality decaying, standards being undermined, traditions being lost. and they do all they can to preserve and extend the institutions that embody social order. Supervisors are in tune with the established institutions and ways of behaving within those institutions, that they have a hard time understanding those who might wish to abandon or radically change them.
