The irony of the ESTJ thinking the INTP is stupid is one of the reasons why the INTJ keeps rolling his eyes and has silent quitted his job. Keep being great, INTP - an INTJ

Depends what you mean by intelligence, I'm ESTJ and INTPs aren't stupid but could be impractical. Not everyone has to be a hard worker but I don't get it when people stay at jobs they can't do or that they hate. Also I'm bad at coming up with ideas/solutions on the spot, so I get that it doesn't necessarily correlate with intelligence.

@@sarahberkner [I'm ESTJ and INTPs aren't stupid but could be impractical.] Thank you! I'm grateful that you can acknowlege our strength. Yes we're not flawless, & should work hard to rectify our shortcomings. [I don't get it when people stay at jobs they can't do or that they hate.] I'm presently in this Exact situation. I'll try my best to explain... Ideally, I'd much rather make a career out of my creative work (artist, writer, programmer), & I'm hard at work towards making this a reality. Until then however, I'm stuck at my pointless dead-end job (under an ISTJ boss 😮‍💨). As adults, we just have to make ends meet, regardless of whether or not our hearts are in it. INTPs are fiercely independent & incapable of compromising our visions. Unless our employers are in tune with our creative frequencies, even 'creative' jobs under tyranical managements would threaten to break our spirits. If INTPs were birds in cages, we would literaly slam our bodies repeatedly against the cage walls for the vain hopes of freedom. Sure it's not the smart approach, but captivity would eventually break our minds. We would lose all our beautiful feathers, & end up as a deranged & unsightly mess - the latter unfortunately being how many unhealthy xSTJs perceive us. [I'm bad at coming up with spontaneous ideas/solutions, which doesn't always correlate with intelligence] There's no type/individual devoid of shortcomings. The wonderful thing about humanity is our differences in strengths & capabilities, & our ability to cover for each other's blindspots. - your nerdy, 'lazy' INTP🤓

[@eddie84style]

The moment she reached her peak of obliviousness while talking about the INFJ "crying for laughing too much" to only top it shortly after for the INTP "lack of expressing their ideas therefore not intelligent" had me laughing out loud in my chair for a bit. The fact that she kept repeating several times "not intelligent" as in to put an end to the saga of "people in the office keep telling me how this guy is smart but I just cannot see it and I have to make it clear once and for all that they are wrong about it, he is at best mediocre and let's move on", was just gold. The fact that I can materialize this "behind the scenes" scenario in my mind speaks volume on how excellent the writing is, combined with incredibly charismatic acting, it really brings things to life, and goes beyond the simple MEME just for a laugh kind of deal.

As an INTJ I must admit that we can't control the movement of our eyes at all. They are either completely transparent when we are displeased, or grossly misleading. I've had multiple people ask me why I was so angry, when I was just staring into space in their direction or trying to make eye contact and feign attention to what they were saying. I've actually been told that my stare can kill 2000 elephants. Also the fact that the ESTJ publicly disclosed that they wanted to control the INTJ would probably lead to the INTJ finally quitting right after.

As an INTJ who has had quite a few ESTJ bosses this representation fits extremely well. Most were impressed by my work ethic, speed and knowledge, but at the same time they also struggled a lot with my need to be able to choose my own way of doing things and be as independent as possible. As always, it depends on the person itself and how open-minded and self-reflected they are. If an ESTJ can’t adapt to other people, they will be a plain in the ass most of the time, if they can, they can actually be cool and get along fine with other types. If every type would just accept others and build on the strengths of one another, any team could reach its full potential.

Kristen, could we have a skit of the mature version of each type interacting with their immature counterparts? I've been hoping for it for a while.

But I think it's great that some people are way more intellectual than me and not everyone is going to be hardworking or good at some things.

[@Harkz0r]

I'm a software developer that transitioned into a more or less full time work-from-home role over the pandemic period (after originally spending 4, then 3, days in the office per week, with a nice juicy 2 hour commute - in either direction). I might not be the most analytically brilliant, but since I worked my way up from customer support, I always imagine other people using the things I create, so a sensible UI, comprehensible error messages, little conveniences, I'd like to think I'm good at making user-friendly solutions. But I admit working from home full time can be a challenge due to my relative lack of self-discipline. Sometimes I'm more productive without all the endless noise but sometimes I need to force myself to go back in the office just to enjoy the atmosphere and casual chats, and as a means of preventing myself from playing games to procrastinate trying to decipher that one spec or working on that one thing that never seems to want to work for some reason, lol. I don't think I want to be a manager either though. Give me technically demanding work, sure, but don't make me responsible for co-ordinating a whole ass team of people. I'll do it if I have to - grudgingly - but it doesn't appeal to me. I often wonder though that if I never grew up surrounded by technology I'd have some kind of language-based job. English (and French at the time) were always subjects in school I never had anything less than top grades in. And I love creative writing even though I hardly ever do it these days.

These days, I typically hear from her when she needs to vent about how people (most often our xSFJ parents) are frustrating her and how nonsensical their decisions are. I can hear her out and understand where she's coming from, and sometimes even agree... but even when I don't agree, I can accept that she's entitled to her feelings and opinions and give her validation and a shoulder to lean on. She and I get along well enough now. Blood is thicker than MBTI. I worked for an ESTJ for over a decade. Close quarters office work. She figured out I was valuable enough to tolerate my eccentricities and I became her go-to person for all esoteric tasks. Also, we both had pugs from the same litter...

So, am I hearing this correctly? You have both of the Ni doms next to each other and closest to you at your office? I don't know if that's the best of ideas. They're absolutely plotting against you; and you're never going to see it coming with the INFJ's polite smile and ability to tell you exactly what you want to hear while obfuscating their true intentions. And that would generally be fine normally, but you gotta know that the INTJ is feeding their neighbor a whole host of plots and ideas for ways to overthrow you. Now, granted, the chances of them actually going through with any of their schemes is low. But, if any combination of ENTJ, ENTP or ESTP overhear any of those conversations between those two... Yeah... They may enact those plans themselves, either out of ambition or "for the luls." And then there is the worry that the ENFP may have taken the INFJ and INTJ under their win as their "pet introverts." So there's that very real concern as well. Especially if/when they convince the ENFP how "fun", "exciting" and "creative" their plans are. Seriously! You have the two best quiet manipulators next to each other and you will never see the consequences of this horrific mistake coming. My suggestion: Grab a bottle of some "fake tears" that are used to deal with severe dry eye and then precede to befriend the ENFJ. You should be able to employ them as a lookout because, if I know anything about ENFJ's, is they LOVE to "unpack" INXXs. And, at the very least, the INFJ can easily fall victim to that.

In season 3 he explains each personality type VERY in depth, talks about how their cognitive fuctions synergies and their meanings based on the position on the stack.

The only reason I kept some of mine was to just have a memento remember whatever event or contest was going on, or to turn them into origamis if they were printed paper "certificates" so that they wouldn't go to waste. It's not like I felt proud or encouraged whenever I got one of those anyways lol. I'd honestly rather get an award that had some degree of meaning to it... unless of course the participation award is food, then I would definitely advocate for that! :D

His subordinates love him, which is why the best employment opportunities for him consisted of delegating as much as possible while avoiding integrating him with his superiors.

The thing with ENTPs often is that they get their work done in about ½-hours. Heck, even this ESTJ didn't say anything about how well or bad ENTPS themselves did their work. She only talked about how ENTP bothered others while they were still working. ENTP had already completed all his tasks at that point and had free time because he was so efficient compared to all others. Sadly, in the workplace, it's often the most inefficient worker, who looks the most busy and hardworking compared to smart and efficient workers ~ ~ In this scenario even all the other workers like ENTP, because he doesn't drag them down. ENTP does his work.

Fun fact: I'm an INTP who used to work at Walmart. Before the ISTJ boss hired an ESTJ to supervise us, I was not only comming in 2 hours early, but I was basically incharge of the team when there was nobody else because I was the only one who knew how to do their job. After the ESTJ came along, in spite of all hope, she started blaming me for everyone else's stuff, even when the other employees owned up to the accusations she threw at me. Even then, she still kept insisting on blaming and harassing me. I even raised several complaints against her, along with other employees she's been harassing. But the ISTJ bods kept insisting she was in the right because she wasn't actually trying to do what everyone else was accusing her of. I even brought up texts proving when she was blatantly lying, but the store manager Mike kept insisting I was making stuff up and telling everyone to ignore me. I had enough anxiety as it was, so I squeezed all the days off I could out of the guy to deal with things my way before inevitably quitting. I even called corporate, but they ended up having freak'n Mike deal with it.

The entire rest of the MBTI gang is going to brainstorm how to keep the INTJ under the ESTJ's thumb? This will not end well. Based on current descriptions of the office layout, it sounds like the INTJ already has two highly regarded allies, the INFJ and the ENTJ on the inside. With the ENTJ's desire to take over the office, the INTJ is probably a valuable asset who will be promised the ability to leave at the right time, when the hostile takeover has been secured. Or will receive a position as ENTJ's personal assistant because he enjoys that style more. One way, or the other, though, it doesn't sound as if the office will last long.
