My interviewee was my wife of similar age, actually a couple of years my younger as we are in our 40’s. Backgrounds are different with my wife coming from a middle class white family in the far southern area of Indiana.

Taking the Myers Briggs test I scored a type ISTJ and was named a Trustee, meaning that I was more introverted, sensing, thinking, and judging than my mate although similar with a type ISFJ and names conservator tying between introverted and extroverted, …show more content…
I on the other hand was one of Trustee, decisive in practical affairs, and a guardian of time honored institutions.
