I would strangle your boss. "No, bitch, I'm feeling this way because you're pissing me off and stuffing me into your little box negates my individuality now put away your fucking pentacle and look me in the eye."

"All models are wrong but some are useful." I've seen enneagrams do far more harm than good.

Aw no my boss is great. She was the only thing keeping me at this job for the past year. Obviously it wasn't a hard guide and she understood her bosses' needs because they're close friends but she would sprinkle quips about enneagram types in. I think it was all in good fun.

Fair enough. I've worked for Promise Keepers and Ramtha-ites and I ain't never doin' that shit again.

Amen. That shit is meant to be a guide, not a label. I hate when people use these things as an absolute reason for behavior, as if no outside influence could possibly affect how I'm feeling or thinking.
