Which Classic Halloween Character Describes your Professional Persona?
Tis the season to get spoopy, so I thought I would write on something a bit more lighthearted to get everyone into spirit(s). Halloween originated from the traditions of the ancient Celtic festival of Samhain (pronounced sow-in, not sam-hain). Back then people would light bonfires and wear costumes to ward off any evil ghosts and ghouls. The tradition still lives on to this day, with the addition of children dressing up and going door to door trick or treating for sweets or, where I'm from, money. You'll see familiar costumes of spooky characters floating about or, again where I'm from, gowned in the finest plastic bin bag in the bid to pass off as some sort of trash goblin. So, which famous character resonates with you the most?
Vampire
A natural born leader, you exude self-confidence and never shy away from a challenge. You have a flare for thinking on your feet, not only do you think fast, but you act even faster. You fear no one and nothing will stand in the way of your goal, although this means you might come off a little arrogant, frightening some might say. You tell it like it is, and have no problem with being brutally honest, although don't quite understand when someone gets upset by the truth. You weren't always this strong, but you've worked hard to get to where you are today, and showing weakness not in your repertoire. Oh, and you hate garlic and don't have a reflection.
Werewolf
Although you have no problem working on your own initiative, you really shine when working as part of a team. Your close circle of friends, or your pack, are extremely lucky to have such a loyal member of the group. You would be considered quite introverted, always watching and listening, but when you do have something to say, everyone had better listen, because your gut instinct is usually the right way to go. You're not easily intimidated, and not afraid to face any challenge head on. You rise with the night, but just be careful when the full moon comes out...
Witch
You are a big believer in all things magic and fate, good and evil. As my mother would say, "what's for you, won't pass you", and these are the words you live by. You have a superstitious natural instinct, and always seem to know when something is going to happen, before it happens. Predictions? Please, it's almost like you're seeing into the future. You are sensitive to others feelings and can read a person quite well, which means building bonds and relationships comes to you with ease. Once a bond has been made, you take it very seriously, and are always true to your word. You can take any ordinary day or event, and make it into something magical. Your only weakness? A tall glass of H2O-no.
Zombie
You only have one thing on your mind, and not even the heavens above could stop you from reaching your goal. This means sometimes you can be blind to other tasks at hand. But you are persistent and resilient, through rain or shine, although maybe not fire... fire bad. You much prefer working as part of a team, otherwise you will feel like you're wandering around a bit aimlessly. Without the guidance from your team mates, you'd be a little lost. You tend not to go with your gut instinct (you probably would if you had any), and much rather follow your brain(sssss)...
Happy Halloween folks! ??
