If you scored high in Gossip, you know you love to hear the dirt about everyone – even yourself! You frequent the break room and the water cooler more than others because those are prime areas for the chance to overhear those "juicy tidbits." Your great strength lies in your phenomenal memory of other people’s business and your ability to speak in hushed tones so that others know you are talking about people but unable to really hear what you are saying. Your talent also lies in your ability to exaggerate the negative and omit the positive so that you can really allow to others to stand out as the evil sons of b*****s they really are.
Gossip sounds like this:
Irma W., call center manager: “I love my job! Thousands of phone calls every day, each with a different potential target for backstabbing and betrayal.”
Jerine C., psychotherapist: “Due to the ethics of my profession, I am very careful to restrict whom I share my clients’ secrets with to a small circle of about a dozen friends. We get together over wine once a month and share stories – they love it!”
