I plan ahead and organize things, to avoid scrambling at the last minute.

When working, I sometimes have difficulties due to being disorganized.

I often push myself very hard when trying to achieve a goal.

I do only the minimum amount of work needed to get by.

When working on something, I don't pay much attention to small details.

I always try to be accurate in my work, even at the expense of time.

People often call me a perfectionist.

I make decisions based on the feeling of the moment rather than on careful thought.

I make a lot of mistakes because I don’t think before I act.

I prefer to do whatever comes to mind, rather than stick to a plan.

I like to get revenge on authorities

I avoid dangerous situations

Payback needs to be quick and nasty

People often say I am out of control

It is true that I can be mean to others

People who mess with me always regret it

I have never gotten into trouble with the law

I will say anything to get what I want

If I want something from someone, I will laugh at that person's worst jokes.

I worry a lot less than most people do.

I would never accept a bribe, even if it were very large.

I would get a lot of pleasure from owning expensive luxury goods.

I want people to know that I am an important person of high status.

I wouldn't pretend to like someone just to get that person to do favors for me.

I'd be tempted to use counterfeit money, if I were sure I could get away with it.
