just curious...

just curious...

Are you an introvert or an extrovert?

I know by my posts most of you would think me to be an extrovert, but I would have to correct you. I can type conversations all day long, but when it comes to face to face?, please just shush. I am fully introverted. Things that stimulate me are things I do alone, like reading, listening to music, and graphic art(drawing or digital)...

So how about you?..

They say (in this article) that as many as 75% of us are extroverts.. Is it the same for us prepress folk?

I think a true introvert would be too shy to vote.

Introvert, all the way. I really don't speak unless spoken to - unless I'm bitching about something.

Having to ride in a car with a salesperson is quite nearly torture for me - they just never shut up and I get attacked with questions now that they've got me trapped.

I, too, could type and type for hours - and I do waste quite a bit of time on forums. But face to face, I'm about as chirpy and exciting as a box of rocks.

avoid everyone... communicate only with email and IMs... that's my motto.

Indeed - and back in the day (allll the way back to 1998) I was all about faxes. Disgustingly detailed fax cover sheets - anything to avoid an actual phonecall.

I see a trend growing here... Im guessing we may all be introverts.. may even be a prerequisite to being in prepress, so from now on at interviews just simply ask if the applicant likes to socialize if they say yes, turn them away... if they say "oh god no, please keep everyone away from me" hire on spot. :lol:
