Oh god, how similar are our results?? :)

[kennahijja.livejournal.com]

Wow, yes, I just looked! And one or two of yours were pretty close runners up... :).

Man, were mine ever crappy. I'd rather be dead than do 90% of what it told me. And my actual jobs came in at the low end, around #20 or #24 or something. Nahhhhh.

Funny thing is, apart from #8 (basically because I could treat you to a 30-minutes rant on the mere *term* 'human resources' on the spot, which I won't, but...) I could imagine working all the others easily.

Yeah, that list sounds a lot like you. Well, apart from, if you don't mind me saying so, you'd make a lousy clergywoman ;D. Guess I skipped all the science-related stuff pretty effectively in mine.

HAHAHA! My profession is on your list. And I think you'd make a fab one, btw.

[fpb.livejournal.com]

Can't be bothered. And anyway, I would be a historian even if nobody ever published or read anything of mine. Which, come to think of it, is pretty much the case.
