WORST. TEST. EVER.
Not much to do in work today, so I've been chatting with Kelly, and she gave me the most awful "what will your career be?" quiz from Facebook. It is SO AWFUL that I needed to repost it here in order to mock it. (I would link to it, but I don't actually have a Facebook account anymore, so she had to take it for me.)
All spelling and grammatical errors are copied from the original.
What will your career be in 10 years?
1. Are you a good people person?
a. Not Really
b. Absolutely
c. Definitely
d. If they are respectful
e. Yes
f. People are great
Okay... someone please explain to me the difference between "absolutely," "definitely," and "yes." And did anyone notice that "people are great" doesn't actually answer the question?
2. Is money important to you?
a. Way important
b. Very
c. Yes
d. A little
e. Not really
f. No
I am assuming "way" is more than "very"...
3. Can you handle stressful situations?
a. Yeah
b. Yes
c. Screaming and Yelling-Yes
d. I handle them great!
e. Very well
f. Not my specialty
I'd point out that once again we have three - or possibly four - answers that all pretty much mean the same thing, except I can't figure out whether answer c means that you can handle screaming and yelling, or that you are the one doing the screaming. It makes a big difference.
4. Do you care for others?
a. Yes mostly kids though
b. Yes mostly
c. Yeah
d. I guess
e. Their well being -than yes
f. I'm very caring!
Where is "FUCK NO, I hate people"? Why isn't that an option?
5. Whats your favorite color?
a. Dark Blue
b. Camo
c. White
d. Bright Colors
e. Black and Grey
f. Green
You do realize that "bright colors" is a category and not an actual color, right?
6. How many kids do you want?
a. As many as I can get
b. None
c. 2-4
d. 1-3
e. No time for a family
f. 1-2
What if I want two kids? WHAT THE FUCK ANSWER DO I CHOOSE???
7. Whats your favorite snack?
a. Crackers
b. Donuts
c. Apples
d. Fast Food
e. Salad
f. Sweets
I just... I don't even. Specific food items or categories, just PICK ONE and stick with it!
8. What kind of clothes do you like?
a. Suits
b. Jeans & T-Shirts
c. Comfy
d. Black Pants
e. Skirts
f. Dressy
I don't see how these categories are mutually exclusive. My black pants are both comfy AND dressy.
9. What kind of music do you like?
a. Any
b. JPR Radio
c. Country
d. Hiphop
e. Classical
f. Love Songs
WTF is JPR Radio? Do they possibly mean NPR? If so, I feel compelled to point out that it's TALK RADIO, which means it's not actually music. Also, rock, jazz, and oldies are not options, but LOVE SONGS is apparently a genre?
10. Favorite Animal?
a. None
b. Cat
c. Dog
d. All Animals
e. Tigers
f. Horse
You know, "all animals" kind of defeats the purpose of asking for a favorite...
11. Whats your favorite drink?
a. Anything with Caffine
b. Hot Coffee
c. Iced Coffee
d. Soda
e. Tea
f. Sparkling Water
I like how coffee is so specific that it needs hot and iced as separate categories, but they can't even think of "juice." Or "tap water."
12. What would you never leave home without?
a. Car
b. Money
c. Books
d. Pager
e. My Phone
f. Pen & Paper
Who uses a pager anymore?
13. What was/is your favorite subject in school?
a. Human Relations/Phyco
b. All subjects
c. Anatomy
d. Drivers Ed
e. Math and Computers
f. PE
Again, all =/= favorite. And hi, ever heard of history? English? OTHER SCIENCES BESIDES ANATOMY? Also, that is DEFINITELY not how you spell psychology.
14. Car of choice?
a. Convertible
b. Little car
c. Truck
d. Farari
e. Mini Van
f. Car that can get me around town
I'm assuming that's supposed to be "Ferrari," and WTF is with the vast differences in specificity in these answer options?
15. What was your summer job as a teen?
a. School Moniter
b. Didnt have one
c. Intern at a corporation
d. Babysitting
e. Secretary at doctors office
f. Cashier
What is this I don't even. At least give me an "other" option.
16. Favorite section in a store?
a. Hunting
b. Home/Office Supplies
c. Medical
d. Car parts
e. Office Supplys
f. Clothes
YES YOU READ THAT RIGHT. "Office Supplies " and "Office Supplys" are TWO DIFFERENT OPTIONS.
Well, I'm sure you're all excited to know that, based on my answers to this quiz, I will be a TRUCK DRIVER. Their rationale:
You love the open road and like to drive. You dont mind being alone and can handle being alone. Meeting new people around the US is your specialty. Your clothes of choice are jeans and a tshirt.
WTF?? No, actually, I picked BLACK PANTS for that question. How can it tell me my future, when it can't even tell me MY OWN ANSWERS?

no subject
Just for giggles, I did a Google search for "JPR radio." I got:
Jefferson Public Radio
Jerusalem Pulse Radio
Joliet Paranormal Radio
Jewish Perspective Radio
Jazz Player Radio
Jumpgate Pirate Radio
Shall we speculate? ;D
no subject
