I find it hard to stick with a job for long, putting up with pencil pushing quota nazis, putting up with rude ass customers (sure they are rude at the club too but you can ignore them without consequence), I have trouble waking up in the morning and getting my act together at 6am to race in my car to fight traffic in the cold, dark morning, and I hate waiting 2 weeks for my goddamned paystub! I got a body to feed and I need cash on the daily LOL. It was also enjoyable because I could get paid to socialize, "work out", and drink. And since my regulars were very sweet to me it felt less stressful and more rewarding. ALSO, I love the limelight and the stage and impressing people with pole tricks. It's not the same as being in a band sharing my music but it was closer to that than scrubbing toilets and painting houses lol. I could also make my own schedule, choose my look, choose my customers, and be my own boss.
    I gave up on it after my mom's suicide. I let myself go for the last 3 years and I'm still trying to find my old drive and motivation. But maybe by next winter I will be ready again for the pole.

    Anti-bureaucracy, anti-schedule, non-committal approach sounds like VERY familiar PoLR territory.

    I went via elimination principle.
    - We have sensing: Impatience; you won't wait + desire for ultimate control over environment (e.g. your looks, being the boss) + resistance which is +.
    - Irrational type: Nothing planned out, not methodical, flexible. The goal matters more than how to get there.
    - Ethics: Your job depends on the people involved. It's relationship ethics with how you evaluate being close to customers (-Fi right there, rude asses? = not a chance!) plus emotion ethics with the aspect of entertainment. No SLI has ever said they want to impress someone in the spotlight or that they love working the stage/audience. My duals are more like *monotone voice* "Eh... leave me in my small comfortable cave here... have work to do... why would I express myself trying to impact other's mood, it makes no sense... and it's stressful." My babies are a bit lazy (= energy-conserving) and minimalists because of Ip with creative, quite adamant as well as unable to generate a buzz. The limelight is not for them. You on the other hand generate excitement yourself and have confidence in this field like a pro.
    - ignoring fits, you can still find enjoyment in a gritty job.
    - Likely suggestive to + to prevent you from those 3 years of aimlessness and no work.

    Anyways, what gave it away real quick: Getting paid to socialize ---> If that's not SF club + Gamma + extrovert
