I see we're going with the "Shishio Makoto" method of character classification.

I'm a "get out of the way"er, or a "lone wolf."

There are leaders, followers and loners in life. Loners are just leaders who don't give a crap. And there's nothing necessarily wrong with being either of the 3 options. Competent followers are usually more valuable than leaders any day of the week. Followers get stuff done, leaders just tell them to do it.

Without leaders, nothing would get done. Without followers, nothing would get done. Without loners, sales of leather jackets would be down.

I'll normally just stay out of the way if I can but I will take charge if no one else does. Leading takes more effort than it's worth and following someone just gets annoying after a while.

I'm a reluctant leader.

I'd prefer to just hang back and relax, but neccessity drives me. Not my own need always, like when traveling on long trips I often lead because my friends are all too useless to book everything, organise and fail at planes and trains and such, though I need to lead to make my journies happen. But I lead at work out of my bosses need for someone, rather than my own ambition. I became a manager of the shop at about 18 after a year of working there, been doing it for two years, in charge of about 20 people below me - some older than me BAHHAHAHA, that feels good. I will be ambitious when I get out of uni and have a career, but I don't see the point now asides from a little experience and training with dealing with subordinates and coodination of the business, im sure it will help a little down the line actually.

I'm a 'stand in the way' kinda person. Rebelling against the evil oppressive government and leading a small underground resistance to one day find hope and peace.

Out of the Wayer. I'm fringe and likin' it.


And by fringe I mean I do whatever interests me and find that any groups or whatever usually involves boring shit so I split. Doin' my own thang. Awesome.

Spiffy.

I almost always stay out of the way. I don't have any desire to lead, and even less inclination to follow. Maybe I'm just playing the part of the typical cynical teenager, but I'd rather watch the leaders lead their followers off to doom or what have you while I sit back and do my own thing.

That depends, if someone is already doing a decent job, then why the heck shld i bother?

If everyone else is screwing up or muddling around, i would step up

I'm one of lifes luitenants, i let others make the deciscision (though i may try to influnce them) and make sure they're enacted, that way i'm not at the bottom of the social pile but i can blame someone else if it all goes wrong. has been where i end up in most social groups i've been apart of after a while. though i can lead if i have no other real choice.

No truer word has ever been spoken in jest, lol.

basically im the guy on the other side of the wall poking a stick at the 'leader' and try to make him do my bidding. that way other people blame him when I whooops i mean he screws it up the rear with barbed wire. aside from that i like being a lone wolf or affecting things from a long distance

Leader. If someone tries to tell me what to do...well, I'm sure you can imagine.

So really, just get the fuck out of my way and no one gets hurt.
