Spirit

Btw, ISTPs are awesome. I really enjoy their detachment and pragmaticism, as well as working with ISTPs in a team. They are excellent problem-solvers in pressured situations because they don't get panicky or emotional. They are also usually refreshingly 'to the point'.

I agree 'mechanic' is a very limiting term for ISTPs. The best description I think is "Analyzer- Operator".

What do you want to know? Based on my "my-typology" this will be much easier if you ask me specific questions.

Here or in the thread?

Finish the book already! Must discuss!

I am not bothered by derailing. I like having conversations that help build my logic framework over time.
