Want to take a personality test and find out if you are 1 of 16 personality types? It's very comprehensive and it's free and you don't have to give any personal information but it asks if you want your results sent to you. If I were you, I would choose not to have them send it to you. Read your results (about 3 or 4 pages) online so they don't need your e-mail address. Scroll down on this page to start the test and then after you do it come back to this thread at a later time and tell us what type of personality you are. I have done it myself when I stumbled on it looking for something else.

AT THE COMPUTER
For all of the computer questions below, I’m referring to a device that is NOT a smartphone. It could be a PC, a Mac, a desktop, a laptop, a notebook, etc.
2) Within the last 12 months, have you learned how to do anything new with your computer or with your computer software? (By “new” I mean it was new for you. It could have existed for months or years and you just didn’t know about it.)
3) If yes, is it because you had to (you ran into trouble, your old way became obsolete, update was done to your operating system and screwed up something you do regularly, etc.) or because you wanted to?
4) Do you use the F keys on your keyboard or do you do those functions some other way?
5) Do you ever take screen captures of video for single still image photos on your computer?
If no, is it because you don’t know how to do it?
6) What software have you purchased (as a disc or a download) for your computer that has nothing to do with games?
AT THE FAST FOOD DRIVE THRU
You are the driver of the vehicle. The following questions are about how you order food, at fast food drive thru with an intercom, when you are with someone.
7) Do you give their whole order then your whole order (or vice versa) or do you combine like items (like 2 small fries or 2 black coffees)?
8) Do you always (for example), order the drinks first, then the food, then the dessert? In other words, do you have an order routine of what you always start with and/or end with?
9) Do you order the items you are most likely to forget first or last?
10) Do you order the items that you have to modify/explain (examples: no pickle or no whipped cream or a medium shake in lieu of the soda that comes with the meal), first or last?
11) Are you ready to order and already know what your passenger wants as soon as you reach the intercom ?
12) Do you change your mind all of the time, sometimes, or never when you are at the intercom?
13) How often are you asked to repeat some or all of your order?
14) If it’s fairly often, do you think the problem might be with:
a) The way you order (see previous questions about ordering routine).
b) Your voice (too soft, you have an accent, you have a speech impediment).
c) You talk too fast.
d) The employee taking the order isn’t paying attention.
e) The employee taking the order isn't experienced.
f) The employee taking the order doesn’t have English as their first language.
g) Other
ODDS and ENDS
15) What do you do when you are taking multiple choice surveys that ask for your opinion, none of the answer choices apply and there is no “other” option?
16) What is your first reaction when a written question (any subject) is asked and someone gives a totally unrelated answer?
a) The reader has a reading comprehension problem.
b) The person can’t be bothered with reading the whole question.
c) The person doesn’t know the answer but doesn’t want to come across as stupid so they impart some other tidbit of knowledge as a diversion.
d) The question is poorly written.
e) The question presumes something that isn’t true and the responder wants no part of it.
f) Something else.

If I was on my vacation it would be planting season now for corn and other crops. What's nice about it is the trees have leaves but you can see the barns if they are not too far back from the road.

2) Within the last 12 months, have you learned how to do anything new with your computer or with your computer software? (By “new” I mean it was new for you. It could have existed for months or years and you just didn’t know about it.) - Navigating through the menus at the Daily Racing Form's web site and mastering Equibase (another horse racing web site) at the same time.
DRF gave me free money ($200.00) and so far so good. I'm winning with their money and have not used any of mine. I had to put in 200.00 to open the account to get it but there was no strings attached and I can get my money back at any time.
I hope this keeps up and I don't crash and burn.
I can see the races live on their web site.
3) If yes, is it because you had to (you ran into trouble, your old way became obsolete, update was done to your operating system and screwed up something you do regularly, etc.) or because you wanted to? - Latter. It appeared to good to be true but it's legitimate. A plug to them for their superior customer service.
4) Do you use the F keys on your keyboard or do you do those functions some other way? - No
5) Do you ever take screen captures of video for single still image photos on your computer?
If no, is it because you don’t know how to do it? - I'm kind of low tech, so...

4) Do you use the F keys on your keyboard or do you do those functions some other way? Never used them

If I was on my vacation it would be planting season now for corn and other crops. What's nice about it is the trees have leaves but you can see the barns if they are not too far back from the road. Come to Kentucky. I've already seen corn coming up already.
1) Which song title best describes your current attitude on Coronavirus 19?
Gotye - Somebody That I Used To Know
2) Within the last 12 months, have you learned how to do anything new with your computer or with your computer software? (By “new” I mean it was new for you. It could have existed for months or years and you just didn’t know about it.)
Yes, I installed some free software for making photo collages.
3) If yes, is it because you had to (you ran into trouble, your old way became obsolete, update was done to your operating system and screwed up something you do regularly, etc.) or because you wanted to?
I wanted to. I tried different similar applications and websites online and wanted to give that one a try, too.
4) Do you use the F keys on your keyboard or do you do those functions some other way?
Only F5.
5) Do you ever take screen captures of video for single still image photos on your computer?
If no, is it because you don’t know how to do it?
I did in the past, but didn't like the quality of photos, so I stopped. Then I did it again when I played some movie game on another forum "Guess the movie from the picture".
6) What software have you purchased (as a disc or a download) for your computer that has nothing to do with games?
Nothing. Everything I needed had already been installed when I bought the computer and there's everything I need online now or some free version of it, so I simply don't need to buy anything.
AT THE FAST FOOD DRIVE THRU
I've never used one.
15) What do you do when you are taking multiple choice surveys that ask for your opinion, none of the answer choices apply and there is no “other” option?
It depends. If I have to take the survey - I choose something that is the closest to my answer, but if I don't have to, if I do it just for fun - I might even give up on the whole survey.
16) What is your first reaction when a written question (any subject) is asked and someone gives a totally unrelated answer?
b) The person can’t be bothered with reading the whole question.
This definitely. I usually think: "Oh, no, another one whose attention span and patience were destroyed by mindless internet surfing!".

If no, is it because you don’t know how to do it? === I've done it in the past but not recently.
6) What software have you purchased (as a disc or a download) for your computer that has nothing to do with games? === TurboTax for my Windows laptop.
AT THE FAST FOOD DRIVE THRU
You are the driver of the vehicle. The following questions are about how you order food, at fast food drive thru with an intercom, when you are with someone.
7) Do you give their whole order then your whole order (or vice versa) or do you combine like items (like 2 small fries or 2 black coffees)? === Mine then theirs, though I can't remember the last time I did it.
8) Do you always (for example), order the drinks first, then the food, then the dessert? In other words, do you have an order routine of what you always start with and/or end with? === Food then drinks.
9) Do you order the items you are most likely to forget first or last? === I probably use a drive-through once a year, so you're getting into unfamiliar territory for me. Usually it would just be me and I'd be ordering a breakfast meal at MacDonalds, so I'd probably be saying "Number 4 with coffee".
10) Do you order the items that you have to modify/explain (examples: no pickle or no whipped cream or a medium shake in lieu of the soda that comes with the meal), first or last? === Nope.
11) Are you ready to order and already know what your passenger wants as soon as you reach the intercom ? === Probably.
12) Do you change your mind all of the time, sometimes, or never when you are at the intercom? === Sometimes.
13) How often are you asked to repeat some or all of your order? === Almost always.
14) If it’s fairly often, do you think the problem might be with:
a) The way you order (see previous questions about ordering routine).
b) Your voice (too soft, you have an accent, you have a speech impediment). <--------
c) You talk too fast.
d) The employee taking the order isn’t paying attention.
e) The employee taking the order isn't experienced.
f) The employee taking the order doesn’t have English as their first language.
g) Other
ODDS and ENDS
15) What do you do when you are taking multiple choice surveys that ask for your opinion, none of the answer choices apply and there is no “other” option? === Skip it.
16) What is your first reaction when a written question (any subject) is asked and someone gives a totally unrelated answer? ?
a) The reader has a reading comprehension problem.
b) The person can’t be bothered with reading the whole question.
c) The person doesn’t know the answer but doesn’t want to come across as stupid so they impart some other tidbit of knowledge as a diversion.
d) The question is poorly written.
e) The question presumes something that isn’t true and the responder wants no part of it.
f) Something else.
PHOTO
If I was on my vacation it would be planting season now for corn and other crops. What's nice about it is the trees have leaves but you can see the barns if they are not too far back from the road. === Beautiful photo Laura. Sorry you're missing your planned trip. Thanks for the questions.

AT THE COMPUTER
For all of the computer questions below, I’m referring to a device that is NOT a smartphone. It could be a PC, a Mac, a desktop, a laptop, a notebook, etc.
2) Within the last 12 months, have you learned how to do anything new with your computer or with your computer software? (By “new” I mean it was new for you. It could have existed for months or years and you just didn’t know about it.) My ahaa moment is found out I could have multiple tabs open on a iPad.
3) If yes, is it because you had to (you ran into trouble, your old way became obsolete, update was done to your operating system and screwed up something you do regularly, etc.) or because you wanted to? I found ir accidentally after I somehow lost it.
4) Do you use the F keys on your keyboard or do you do those functions some other way? No, not since the Mac SE.
5) Do you ever take screen captures of video for single still image photos on your computer? Iv'e done it but rarely use it.
If no, is it because you don’t know how to do it? I do have to refresh my memory when I use it.
6) What software have you purchased (as a disc or a download) for your computer that has nothing to do with games? OfficeLibre, A MS Word and Excel clone.
AT THE FAST FOOD DRIVE THRU I don't use them.

15) What do you do when you are taking multiple choice surveys that ask for your opinion, none of the answer choices apply and there is no “other” option? Depends on the survey, if it's for a favorite candy bar I might mark a couple of choices. If it's a Political one I trash it because they are manipulative.
16) What is your first reaction when a written question (any subject) is asked and someone gives a totally unrelated answer?
a) The reader has a reading comprehension problem. b) The person can’t be bothered with reading or understanding the whole question.
c) The person doesn’t know the answer but doesn’t want to come across as stupid so they impart some other tidbit of knowledge as a diversion.
d) The question is poorly written intentionally to confuse the survey taker.
e) The question presumes something that isn’t true and the responder wants no part of it.
f) Something else.

2) Within the last 12 months, have you learned how to do anything new with your computer or with your computer software? (By “new” I mean it was new for you. It could have existed for months or years and you just didn’t know about it.) We replaced my hard drive back in January. It was a Christmas gift from my son because mine was bogging the machine down.
3) If yes, is it because you had to (you ran into trouble, your old way became obsolete, update was done to your operating system and screwed up something you do regularly, etc.) or because you wanted to? Yes... Worst part was it took forever for the machine to boot up.
4) Do you use the F keys on your keyboard or do you do those functions some other way? I usually forget they are there! I do use them on my work computer.
5) Do you ever take screen captures of video for single still image photos on your computer?
If no, is it because you don’t know how to do it? I don't and I don't know how to do it either.
6) What software have you purchased (as a disc or a download) for your computer that has nothing to do with games? H&R Block tax prep
