The Lipson-Shiu Corporate Type Test [More:]

So... what'd you get?
ICIG (Entrepeneur).

ILUG (Mensch)

The I LUG is that rarest of underlings: the one whom you can trust to understand what you're telling them and then rely on to get the job done. In any organisation, these are the people who actually do the work. (example: Florence Nightingale)

ICUE (Mad Scientist/Hacker)

ILIE (Grand Vizier)

The I LIE has probably carved a ruthless trail to the top, but left no evidence of it. At least, if you find the bodies you're in very bad trouble. Highly adept at serving their own ends, I LIEs are not people to be on the wrong side of. Here is someone who has made the system work for them (examples: Sir Humphrey, Lex Luthor).

Uh oh, I better take it again and manipulate the results so you all think I am nicer... Oh wait.

First I was SCUG (Apologiser) then I was ICUG (Inventor). By reading the descriptions I would have guessed ILUG (Mensch).

ICIE (Torturer)

A sadistic type who, rather than building an evil empire (though that may be a fringe benefit), devotes their time and considerable talents to making the world as unpleasant as possible. Often found in charge of human resources or very very large software companies.

I... uh...

SCIE (Natural Disaster)

The exact form of the problems that arise from the SCIE are hard to predict, since even the SCIE doesn't know. The SCIE is able to generate random acts of cruelty without effort or intention. Just stay out of their way and try to find shelter (Example: Cthulhu)

Look, I hugged a complete stranger on the street today, okay? I AM NOT A GREAT OLD ONE. (Yet.)

ICUG (Inventor)

The ICUG is given to solitude and shoe staring. He or she loves little puzzles and is often a good source of off-the-wall, innovative ideas. Best left to their own devices with only occasional steering (example: Leonardo da Vinci)

That was fun!

As a Mensch, let me tell you your test is far too easily gamed.

lol I got Cthulhu too. I'm not sure it's completely inaccurate.
