Heh, I'm not surprised I ended up a male. ;)

You are an SRCL--Sober Rational Constructive Leader. This makes you an Ayn Rand ideal. Taggart? Roark? Galt? You are all of these. You were born to lead. You may not be particularly exciting, but you have a strange charisma--born of intellect and personal drive--that people begin to notice when they have been around you a while. You don't like to compromise, but you recognize when you have to.
You care absolutely nothing what other people think, and this somehow attracts people to you. Treat them well, use them wisely, and ascend to your rightful rank.
20 Questions to a Better Personality
Thankfully I didn't personally have to deal with them, because I was downstairs - yay! :) (Only not really yay because I missed seeing Teena fly out on her way back to Arizona, but she might have left in the morning, anyhow.)
One guy got his little circular keychain screwdriver taken away from him. He was offered the option of mailing it to himself, but apparently he wanted to make a big, huge scene instead, and yelled that he was being given "no choice." Um, I'm sorry, if someone offers you three options and you don't choose to take one of the other two, you can't say you weren't being given a choice. If the choice of mailing it back to yourself is unattractive because it would cost five times as much as the item originally cost, then ... why are you making a scene over such a trivial object? And then he returned, later, to try to challenge the definition of the screwdriver as a tool. He walked up to a Lead and held a pen up right in her face saying, "THIS is a tool!" She responded, "No, sir, it's a pen." "It's a writing tool!" She called over a Supervisor, who then got treated to him going on to her about how monkeys use bamboo as tools. (Later on screeners had a few choice words to say about who was a monkey and in what tool-like ways we might like to use his bamboo.)
Another woman started cursing at the screeners, and the same Lead fell into her alternate role as busdriver - "We don't use that kind of language, here!" (That poor Lead had all the psychos today.)
And I caught a bit of hell for not having taken it upon myself to go help at the checkpoint before going on my first break. I'd thought I was making the right choice for the team in taking my break ridiculously early in order to get it out of the way, because we didn't have help for later. (I didn't want to do that, as I wasn't hungry, yet.) I got rather snappish at the Supervisor who took me to task, because I'd been really working my ass off and my blood was up. But we made it up very quickly, too. He's good that way. I was following orders, but I could have given more thought and offered better options for my Lead, who is not an afternoon shift person and doesn't know how our workloads run, and I could also have taken a radio with me. (To further confuse the matter, when that Supervisor had called me on the radio, someone answered him and said they were at the checkpoint, so he was thinking that was me, of course.)
The problem with offering to help at the checkpoint before taking your own break is that as soon as you get in there you're sucked into a vortex. They leads will use you to break all of their people and you'll be stuck there for an hour or more while your own station downstairs doesn't get breaks out.

| Which generic smut novel character are you? (With somewhat relevant pictures!) The Burly, Surly Stable Hand Do enjoy heavy lifting, heavy eating, and heavy drinking? Are you good at picking up bales of hay and fine-looking women? Are you wearing flannel at the moment? If you answered an affirmative grunt to any of the above, then “The Burly, Surly Stable Hand” category has you profiled.
