This will, of course, come as a great surprise to everyone here:

INTP (Architect)

Greatest precision in thought and language. Can readily discern contradictions and inconsistencies. They are good at logic and math and make good philosophers and theoretical scientists, but not writers or salespeople. 1% of the total population.

It's true, I would be a HORRIBLE salesperson.

strategic planning---->perhaps
writer---->If only I weren't addicted to eating. (Also I can't help noticing that at one point they say 'not writers' and then list writers.)
staff development--->Not really
lawyer--->Seriously considered it
architect--->Nope
software designer--->Could see that
financial analyst---->Don't care enough about money to be good at it.
college professor--->Yes, could see taking up the 'family business'
photographer--->Perhaps
logician---->See comment re: writing
artist---->Not really me
systems analyst---->Sure, why not
neurologist---->yeah baby!
physicist---->Thought about it but decided against it
psychologist--->See above
research/development...specialist--->Grant writing...hmmm
computer programmer--->See software designer
data base manager--->Perhaps
chemist--->Thought about this as well
biologist--->Yes, as a matter of fact take the DBM, SysAnalyst, and CompProg jobs, add them to biologist and mix well and that would be my program of study.

investigator--->I could write about investigators, does that count?

Cheers
