ISTJ's, when you are annoyed with someone, how do you react and do you hold a grudge? I had to fill in for an ISTJ in his absence in a work situation and I fouled a few things up. They weren't "world stopping", job losing, financially disastrous mistakes. They were minor in nature, yet I'll admit that my mistakes created a little extra work for him upon his return.
What surprised me was his reaction. Instead of showing any kind of appreciation that I filled in for him in the first place and for the 95% that I did right, he kind of acted like a jerk about it and I lost some respect for him. God forbid that he has to do anything outside of his comfortable little routine. I get along pretty well with ISTJ's (including him), but when someone goofs something up and pisses you off, how do you react? Do you lose respect for the person who made the mistakes or is he just trying to be firm and express that this can't happen again or what? I didn't know what to make of his little outburst.
