    Moral of the story is, you'll find SLEs in all walks of life. They're not all good, nor all bad.

    However, many SLEs are more commonly drawn to certain activities in order to (stereotypically*) satisfy their Se. You should find a fair few Beta STs in the military, in training corps (or whatever it is you have in the US - ROTC?) etcetera. This provides an outlet for their Se - discipline, active lifestyles, wine, woman and song - and for their Ti - strict hierarchy and a strong ideology. In line with the stereotype, you're likely to find a large percentage of SLEs out on the field, playing football (saaker), rugby (American football in your case) and hockey, or on a court, playing tennis or basketball. Again, this is to satisfy the "get the ball rolling" (no pun intended) aspect of Se. One which may be less stereotypical but still the epitome of SLE is in high positions in the corporate world; I'm talking about chief execs (the guys who are not actually fucked by back-room dealers, but who run the show from the outset), back-room dealers themselves and power/stock brokers. These certainly provide an outlet for an SLE's Se; in fact, it's like paradise - getting people to do what you want them to do, and doing this well.

    *I say stereotypical because not all SLEs are ADHD kids. I get tired of the "come on let's do stuff" aspect of OTC. I just want to go home, grab a shower, wrap myself in a throw, and indulge in creature comforts.

    yeah, the SLE I know is a senior vice president for a large financial firm. he's the one who brings in the clients, seals the deal. he travels all around visiting clients and bringing in the money. his partner deals with the other aspects of the business but the SLE is the best with people and getting out there to bring in the business.
