Psychology of a Torgo

Before they'd hire me, my company did a series of psychological profiles. Here's the summary from one (I only edited the name):

Torgo wants to make certain that detailed reports are accurately completed. This
tendency can be reassuring to Torgo's supervisors. While he may not be a perfectionist with all things, he has certain activities that will always be done with the same high standards in mind. He tends to be precise about his use of time and can become frustrated when others interrupt him when in the middle of a task. He can be sensitive about any comments regarding the quality of his work. He strives forward constantly to improvement in everything he does. Torgo prides himself on being incisive. He wants to get things done by proceeding with the facts that are at hand. Some people see him as being fussy and meticulous. He takes much pride in precise and accurate work, but others may not always understand his attention to details. To some people, Torgo may appear to be analytical. In conflict situations, Torgo usually remains calm and cool-headed. When things calm down, however, he may suffer some delayed reaction. Torgo prefers doing the job right the first time, rather than taking shortcuts that may lessen the quality of work. He sees it as the efficient way of task completion. He doesn't appreciate a dirty or messy work station, since he equates dirt and disorganization with lower quality work.

Torgo uses data and facts to support the big decisions, because it makes him feel
more confident that his decisions are correct. He usually judges others by the quality of their work. He may find it difficult to recognize others' strengths, if their work does not meet his high standards. He is a critical and systematic thinker, and this strength may not be easily recognized by others. He tends to make his decisions after deliberation and gives weight to all the pros and cons. Torgo tends to base decisions on the quality of work--not on efficiency. He has an acute awareness of social, economic and political implications of his decisions. He tends to become bogged down in details. He may accumulate so much data that the details overwhelm him. He can be seen as a thinker whose intuitive talents can bring divergent ideas to the forefront.

Torgo's logical, methodical way of gathering data is demonstrated by his ability to ask the right questions at the right time. People who show up early or late for appointments may upset him, since his work plans are disrupted. Torgo makes an agenda and prefers that others not change it. Torgo’s work represents his true self and he will take issue when people attack the quality of his work. He likes to know what is expected of him in a working relationship, and have the duties and responsibilities of others who will be involved explained. Communication is accomplished best by well-defined avenues. Torgo is usually soft-spoken, but his demeanor may be deceptive to those who work with him. He may possess strong and unwavering convictions that are not always apparent to others. He can be outgoing at times. Basically introverted, he will engage in social conversation when the occasion warrants. People may often see Torgo as formal and reserved. He may be assessing the situation before "letting his guard down" and may do so only when
he feels comfortable with the circumstances. Because Torgo wants to be certain he is
performing his work assignments correctly, he enjoys working for a manager who explains what is expected of him.


I think I sound like a British accountant.
