All of my x's were born of "it depends"
The only question I felt especially challenged by was the very last...
for question 25.) I am persuasive... I answered yes.
But for 64.) I am rarely persuasive, and I'm not good at negotiation. <-this is one of those...I am persuasive...but I suck at negotiation. Basically I'm persuading to not have to negotiate.
Edit: I don't know if you will catch this Mal but I answered 8.) in a way that doesn't reflect who I am. In no way am I ambitious...but I'm not laid back either when I have a stake in something. None of that makes me organized but if I care I care so idk
