Code, no. Loyalty, yes.

Gamma thinkers also usually have a love for order and rules.
Order is good when it makes something more effective and efficient. Rules? They're necessary to some extent, but I would not say that Gammas "love" rules. They're more likely to do what they feel is right than to simply follow the rules. And they think that other people should make their own decisions about right and wrong as well, not simply follow rules. For this reason, any type of "rule" put in place from Gamma is more so a matter of procedure for the purpose of making things run smoothly. Rules are at best a necessary evil.
Quote:
This often leads Gamma thinkers to enter the military.
NO NO NO NO NO NO NO
Quote:
Gamma thinkers tend to follow orders from superior officers or bosses very well.
Depends on the situation. Different people may have different roles within a group (including leader), but this is only for the purpose of effectively and efficiently completing an objective. Gammas are extremely unlikely to just simply "follow orders" due only to the fact that they're from a "superior" though. How on earth would we stand up to Beta if such were the case? We'd be Beta's little bitches.
Quote:
Many Gamma thinkers usually end up with tons of metals and awards for their strong dedication to serving.
This idea is rather foreign to me. It sounds more like something Beta would be concerned about than Gamma (most of the description so far has, actually). Keep in mind that Gamma contains SEE's (the type most resistant to subjugation under a hierarchy's system of rules) and LIE's (who are often Enneagram 8's and have a Se Hidden Agenda).
Quote:
Gamma thinkers are often hired by companies for their predication skills(-Ne/+Ni).
Should we add that to our resumes? :lol:
Quote:
They are easily able to see trends in things and where the trends will lead.
yep
Quote:
Gamma thinkers usually have a compulsive need to own property or to own things of monetary value.
It's about freedom, not materialism.
Quote:
Gamma thinkers love to take calculated risks.
Yep. Much more so LIE's than ILI's.
Quote:
Gamma thinkers to predict the market and to take huge risks that have big payoffs. Because of Gammas risk taking abilities, there are usually very few middle class Gamma thinkers. As soon as Gamma thinkers have money, they are thinking of ways to spend it to make more money. Sometimes this pays off, others times it doesn't(though it pays off more time than not because of Gammas predication skills). One misconception about Gamma thinkers is that they are natural leaders. This is simply not true.
Yep.
Quote:
Gamma thinkers are usually better at taking orders and working for big corporations.
NO NO NO NO NO NO NO
There's a reason LIE is called the Enterpriser, and it's not because LIE's are content to work for someone else their whole lives, never getting out of the rat race. Financial independence is of tremendous importance to LIE's, and it is impossible to be financially independent while you're dependent on a job.
Quote:
They tend to make the places they work for big sums of cash. Gamma thinkers are usually very polite and courteous people.
Sure? Complaints that we're too blunt are common though (this also applies to Gamma SF's).
Quote:
Gammas overall are not very forgiving people.
SEE's are probably too forgiving. With ESI's, it depends on who did something wrong, what they did, and how they acted afterwards. ILI's are probably too forgiving as well, and with LIE's it can go either way.
Quote:
They believe strongly in their moral... values
Yes.
No.
Quote:
Usually when someone breaks these rules, they are quick to drop the hammer on them.
This often applies to ESI's, but not so much to other Gamma types.
Quote:
Both Gamma feelers and thinkers are very defensive.
Everyone can be defensive about something. Over defensiveness, however, is a sign of insecurity and is not type related.
Quote:
Gamma feelers usually are the Guardians of the world.
The world? That sounds more like a Delta NF thing. Gammas are more concerned with their families and friends.
Quote:
They will not let anything happen to their loved ones.
Yes.
Quote:
They are usually extremely protective.
Well, they value productivity in any case.
Quote:
They are usually extremely quick to disowning someone...
Depends. See what I said earlier about forgiveness.
Quote:
for disobeying societal and moral standards.
Ugh I'm beginning to feel a need to start a thread about this "societal" shit.
Quote:
Overall Gamma feelers are very playful as long as they do not find something to dislike about the opposing person. Gamma feelers usually pay close attention to how people word sentence or how they are approached.
Sure?
Quote:
They usually are waiting to be insulted so that they can defend themselves.
See what I said above about insecurity.
Quote:
When they believe that the person has said something to their disliking, they usually make very characteristic facial expressions to show their dissatisfaction(there jawline usually becomes very rigid and their eyes have a very fierce glow about them). Gamma overall tend to work in very slow paces. This does not change with the Gamma feelers. When cleaning or cooking they usually take their time.
I don't know.
Quote:
They usually don't cook or clean often, but when they do they do an extremely thorough job.
This is true of me, but
Quote:
Gamma feelers usually do not like to stand out
I dunno, SEE's generally seem not to mind drawing attention to themselves.
Quote:
and usually have a strong distaste for people that do.
Depends what you mean by "stand out". How someone stands out is important to whether they're annoying or not.
Quote:
They believe in loyalty to their superiors.
No.
They believe in loyalty to their loved ones.
Quote:
Gamma ideology: Loyalty
Loyalty and freedom (particularly financial freedom).
