[Haphazard]

Okay then...

Te is a driving force. It is the difference between what I want to do and what I need to do, constantly evaluating what I can get away with and what I can't, and usually he pushes me in the right direction, and backing off and giving me some space when he thinks I need it.

Generally, it's my drive to work. I may have too many ideas, but Te will come in with his whip and smacking my drive back into me. "It's worthless unless it's presentable," says Te, "So you'd better try your damndest!"

Te is bad with people -- he sees them and strives to treat them fairly, but generally, this is not what people want. So he's been scorned and would rather not associate with them, and yet there they are, all the time, pestering for questions. When Ni has completely checked out (as he usually has), Te tends to get snappish about responses and resort to an assortment of stock-phrases to get people away while the boss is gone.

I do whittle away thousands of antisocial hours writing (among other things) but at this point writing has become a compulsive habit. I wouldn't really say that it's an attempt to make a mark on the world, but it's an attempt to make these 'cool ideas' into something that other people can see. It's not for making a mark, it's just translations of things that Te demanded be put to work.

And that's about what Te does -- at least, for me.
