48.12623% - Super Geek

I am 28% Tortured Artist

I have some artistic ability, but it is probably a hobby and doesn't drive my life into a dark abysmal hole were I am alone and against the world.

Take the Tortured Artist Test at fuali.com

I am 53% Geek

Nerd, Freak, Geek, Dweeb. Sound familiar? That's okay, cause I will be the richest person at my 15th year high school reunion. If a "con" isn't happening that weekend.

But it was a choice in the careers section for the first quiz!

I think librarianship requires a moderate-to-medium-high level of geekiness. After all, we do deal with information and searching and 'puters and the internet and stuff.

However, it also prevents an overload of geekiness.

After all, we have to deal with....

*deep breath* ....

non-geeks.

Library patrons.

Humans with questions.

We interact with them.

Frequently.

So we can't go into total geek mode for very long, because it isn't a closed system.

*sigh*

Yes, mais, so was "IT" (in general), IIRC.
