your strengths / your weaknesses

half-bubble · 2011-08-09T22:02:38Z

Tough week. I thought I had offended a mentor and that I would have to work a few more years to sit for the exams. Working it out now in a positive way but in general doing a lot of soul searching about being a surveyor, filling out apps and trying to decide am I really ready? And all this when, due to health issues and bad attitude I don't really expect to ever make a living being licensed. The thing that is currently driving me is the idea of being able to legally dig up some original GLO corners out in the wilderness and document and perpetuate them. So this is like one of those dockers-wearing office wuss interview questions I always disliked in the dot-com era, but it's what I am pondering today. Answer in whatever style you feel like. (if you're wearing dockers, I give you back your pride. Work on your rebellion.)STRENGTHS: I'm always thinking about the worst case scenario. This makes me good at spotting potential blunders or liabilities. I can swallow my pride and pick up a phone and ask someone who knows, "how am I $&*$#ing this up?" I can usually answer the same question when asked. (I'm getting better at not telling people when they haven't asked.)On a good day, I can hold a complex mix of facts and opinions in my head with neither gullible belief nor skeptical disbelief.WEAKNESSES: On a bad day I will go to bagpipes and swords at the drop of a hat, and hold a grudge for eternity.How about you?
